To The Marshall Family,
I'm truly sorry to hear of your loss. May you know that God will see your through these trying times. My thoughts and prayers will continue to be with all of you. It will be the prayers that will carry you through.
I will miss Carlesta when I'm working on weekends in the waiting room. She was truly a delight to be a around. I would always go in talk and pray with her. I'm so glad God touched my spirit to go up in HICU and pray with her. Continue to allow her spirit to live in each of you.
Be blessed by His words,
