Dear Jim,

Bob, Nicole and I met Carla shortly after you began your life together. Carla was fun then and all through the years we have known her. When Carla gave Nicole her own stuffed animal, Merlyn, she didn't know then, but she eventually found out, she made a friend for life. Nicole is 30 now and still has Merlyn on her bed and will forever have Carla in her heart.

Jim, you were the love of Carla's life, and you made her happy. I hope all the laughter you two shared, and there was a lot of laughter, will comfort you.

Dear Jim, I'm so sorry for your loss. It was such a shock to see you at the hospital when Carla was first admitted and to see how sad you were. You and Carla put on some great reunions for the MCHS Class of 1955 @ the Hermosa Hotel. Be well........
