Carla was an inspiration to all who knew her. She was witty, incredibly funny but very human. She had a wonderful spirit -- making you feel loved and always at ease. There are few people who are this genuine and this truly loving. Todd and Spencer were at the center of her life. I am sure she left them at peace with an abundance of her love. May she rest in peace. She will be missed.
