Not sure what to say?

Dear Frank and Family,

Roger and I are so sorry to learn of you and your brothers' unexpected and recent loss. Words cannot express our sympathy. Please know our prayers will be with you daily, and our heart goes out to you with our sincere condolences.

I was deeply saddened at the news of Carol's passing. I am one of her California second cousins. Playing Peter Pan when we were little will forever remain one of my best memories.

Bill and Karen Fies of Bradford, Arkansas. Bill is a second cousin and will be attending the service on behalf of himself and all the descendants of Gladys Louise Bowman Fies (dec), her Carol's aunt.

It was a pleasure and honor to know Carolyn. She went out of her way to introduce me to so many people when I was new to Dallas and knew nobody. I always looked forward to catching up with her and hearing about her most recent travel adventure with the boys. She truly touched so many lives, from students to coworkers and friends. She will be missed.

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
I wanted to write and tell you again how sorry we are for your loss. There are never the right words to express how deeply sad I am that you have to endure your loss. Carolyn will be truly missed by everyone who knew her no matter where they crossed her path in life.

Carolyn was a giver, never a taker. She was always there to...

Frank, JP and William,

What a lovely tribute to your mother. You and your family are in our prayers.

Dear Frank -

Don't know if you remember me, but I was Head of Lower School during your early days at Greenhill and remember you fondly. I was so sorry to hear about your mom. I recall her incredible down-to-earth sense of herself and her warm sense of humor. She was such an easy and fair parent to deal with, and I always looked forward to seeing her at carpool or mini-schools or whenever she was around. And boy, did she love you! I am sorry for you loss. You and your brothers...

I was honored to have known Carolyn and soon learned that she had a friendly nature, sense of humor and kindhearted attitude that few possess. We met through a mutual friend several years ago and once upon a time attended an Argyle function together at Northwood Country Club. I found that she was an interesting conversationalist with a beautiful speaking voice- and yes- beautiful eyes. What a rare gem. May you- her sons, extended family, friends and dog-be at peace during this time. God...

Many years ago, I finalized my divorce and was facing the reality of becoming a single mom. Carolyn, with her usual sweetness and tenderness, told me her own story, and it offered me great comfort. She admitted that yes, it will be difficult and very trying at times, but in the end, it is worth -- YOU are worth -- every bit of it. She told me that the relationship she has with her three sons was the most special thing in the world to her. Boys, she loved you so much and cherished your...
