Dear Taylor Family,

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Carrie was a wonderful woman. As a child, I have fond memories of her, especially of going with my parents every week when they bought eggs from Carrie and Penn. She will be very missed but her memories will forever be in your hearts. Art and Cynthia, Ray and Martha, and families, you will all be in my prayers during this difficult time that God will give you peace and comfort.
