Remember Care as a true fighter and inspiration. Rest in peace Care - Thank You for being such an inspiration to so many.

For a few days following Jamie´s death I got to share your grief in Alaska. Your beautiful home in the woods, Bill´s extensive garden, and a light hearted moment going to the river´s edge with Bubba to look for heart rocks. What an amazing lady!

Oh, Ms. Care. I will never forget the impact you had on my life and the example of resilience, love, and joy that you were and always will be. I sent you an Easter message yesterday, not knowing you passed on until today. I know you are now fully healed, whole, with Jesus, and reunited with your sweet husband Bill and daughter Jamie. I am sure you are singing like you told me you used to, with that beautiful voice of yours, along with the angels before the throne of God. The victory is now...

Care ~ you meant more to me than words can express. You had an uncanny way of reaching out to me truly out-of-the-blue when I had a troubled heart, how did you always know? Although your passing saddens me, I feel peace and joyfulness knowing you are in heaven with Bill, Jamie, and the tiny grandchild you lost.

Rest well my friend.Our many years of connection mean the world to me! I miss you and love you!

Care was such a force of caring. She was aptly named. I will never forget her words of wisdom, her story, and her love of God. She was a true hero to me....courageous to keep waking up every day and doing the next thing, with such strong faith. Don't Whimp Out is my motto, now. It kicks me in gear. We share the same birthday. I will think of her on that day for the rest of my life

Care was such a character..! It was such a privilege to have known you all. Care was steadfast in her love of the Lord. You will be missed..
