I dearly loved Sister Crosby:) She was my teacher in young women's in the Bountiful 10th ward. She truly was gifted and taught truly by the spirit. She loved us, uplifted us and made me want to be the best that I could be. I will ever be grateful for the testimony she helped me build. I can't praise or admire her enough for the difference she made in my life because of her genuine and unselfish nature!

As a child I lived 2 doors down from Aunt Carma. I watched her house being built and spent many days in her basement listening to her player-piano. I will miss her hearty laugh and generous spirit.

My Aunt Carma always made me feel loved and welcomed, I felt truly accepted by her. A childhood memory comes to mind, of her making us root-beer floats served in tall metal cups! Aunt Carma and I have stayed in close contact over the years and I will really miss her and our long telephone chats. I extend my love and prayers of comfort to her children, our other family members and to her friends at this sad time, Jim Singley

Carma was my aunt, she was my father's little sister, his only sister. I wish I had been able to spend more time with her growing up, but I feel blessed to have had her in my life the times that we did share. She will always be a part of my childhood memories. I pray for comfort over her sons, Mark and Scott and her two daughters Marie and Sylvia. Love Suzanne Singley Witt
