Not sure what to say?





It has been 12 years but sometimes it feels like yesterday. I still talk to you about stuff and try to think about what you would have told me to do. I hope you are happy up there and having fun with all the family and friends that went before you.

Sweet Nigel, your dearest Sara was my PWP sister. We were very close in our hay days. I am sorry to say I haven't been a close friend these last few years. I will always cherish the good times we all shared and the lovely praying hands you both sent us when Terry and I married. Your sweet faces on our special night will always be remembered. My prayers and sympathy to you and your familes. I know you loved her more than life.
I hope our prayers will help you through this tough time. Love always Carolyn and Terry Cotner.
