Sandy and Calvin
The glue that bonded the family together is gone. You will have to not only spend time together but you will have to pray together. Remember in God all things are possible. I believe the two of you can come together on one accord and keep your family in God. May God's bountiful blessings and pleasant memories be yours to share. You are the Carter unit, in God all things are possible.
