Carl Francis Barrett

Heather,
I have a favorite poem written by Veronica A Shoffstall. I hope you can get something from it in your times of need. Know we are here for you and love you and the kids.

After a While

After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
and you earn that love doesn't mean leaning and Company doesn't mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contract and presents aren't promises....

Dear Heather, Carlee and Cole,
My deepest sympathy and prayers are with you. Carl will be missed by many but none so much as you. He was a good friend to my brother and I always considered him family because of this bond. May your family, friends and the Lord give you comfort and love today and each tomorrow.

Carl, you will always be thought of as a brother & best friend. We never know how life will go or in which direction but, we must have faith that God always has a plan for us. You will be so missed. You are a part of all my childhood memories. And you inspired me to start my own business. Thank you for all the memories. Heather, Carlee, & Cole the road ahead will surely be a challenging one for you. May you always be surrounded by family and friends offering love and support. Dawn you are...
