Karen and family, hugs, prayers and love to you all. Gail Govoni Erickson

I was so sorry to hear about your mom. She was such a joy to be around.

So sorry to hear of Carol's passing. My sister Shirley Tanguay graduated with Carol and enjoyed many good times with her and Claire Sypek. Had many laughs at the tag sales they shared together. Carol was such a lovely and warm-hearted person who had a smile for everyone. My sincerest condolences to all of her family who will assuredly be in my prayers.

Dear Karen, Steve, Tim and Gail: I am so sorry to read about your mom’s passing. I wish I’d known sooner so I could have come to pay my respects at the calling hours. I have so many great memories of he and your dad from the youth band days. Also, as I was telling you Karen when I ran into you just a few weeks ago, I used to see your mom at planet fitness on Carando Drive and we would chat. May loving memories bring you comfort and peace ❤

So very sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers
