Carloe. We met when we was in elementray school. You was family then but later married into our family. So for many years, you was not only my best friend but sister.We shared the same birthday, I remeber you telling me, how much older I was, twenty minutes,LOL We shared some good times and bad. I cherish all of those times. So you made it to our heavenly home. I know that you have met up with so many of our family, please give them all hugs for me. I love you and miss you but I know that I will be there one day. Rest in peace dear sister.
