Not sure what to say?

Carol was a very nice person. She will never be forgotten.
I am sorry to see her go. She will be truly missed.

Carol,
I met you through my job - you were my customer. We became friends pretty fast and I remember clearly you treated and respected me as an equal. I feel I was blessed to have met you, a wonderful human who is always elegant, caring, sweet and in many ways perfect. You had a most beautiful taste of furniture, wardrobe, even things as small as post-it notes. I just loved all of those cute and beautiful things about you. Once you gave me a beautiful compact mirror and it’s still one...

Carol, I was reminded last night that your birthday was a few days ago. I plain forgot! OF course, I knew it was in December, but I thought it was later in the month. You know what they say about the mind going ga-ga, well, apparently, mine has.

You would be 57, God,that is so young. It breaks my heart that you have left us.

I trust you are surrounded by God's love.

Patty

Carol,

It has taken me a long time to try and find the right words, but I have found that there are no words that can adequately express how I feel.

I still have difficulty believing you are gone and want to call out to you. It is so unfair to be taken from this world so young.

I was always amazed that you had such a big heart in such a small body. You were the most thoughtful, caring and considerate person I have ever known and always put other’s needs...

I am really sorry to hear of Carol's untimely death; she was a very nice, giving and friendly person. I will miss her.

Carol:

I was granted the opportunity of gradually becoming a friend of your when you lived here at Pacific Heights Towers in San Francisco. We shared many personal & funny details of our lives to each other. I will always remember the laughs we shared.

You will not be forgotten.

Always,

Carol:

We were best friends for many, many years in Northern California. We were mistaken for each other by many co-workers at Visa. You were like the sister I never had.

I trusted you to take my five year old on a plane ride from SFO to PSP. I trusted Vince to take him on his first (and only)motorcycle ride. I loved both you and Vince as family.

I'm sorry that we lost touch and I'll regret those lost years.

May you rest in peace.

I don't want to write anything here because I don't want to face the fact that you are gone from this world. I want it to be yesterday when life was fine.

I have too many memories to write one or two because there are so many....fun we had, so much fun, laughing, fussing with each other, drinking, secrets, so much pain, - loss, tears, support, so much hope, joy, shared anger with other people (if Carol was mad at someone, I was mad at them too, if I was mad at someone, she was...

Rest in peace, Carol

Carol,

I have known you for a large part of my life. We were connected by our marriages into the Chan family. Sisters-in-law have unique relationships: not overtly chosen, but "by-product" relationships. Since the Chan boys numbered 5, we had more than the usual number of sister-in-laws!

Since long distances separated us, I didn't get to know you on an extremely personal level, but over the years, I got to know you well enough to appreciate your wonderful qualities....
