Not sure what to say?

It was a strange time, but what time is not strange? I wish I had know you longer and under better circumstances, but that might have been asking to much from this life. I remember your laugh, and that is good enough for me.

Cheers,

i miss you and i cant explain what my life is now...i'm so happy you told me i was your only grand-daughter wont ever let it go

Though I only had the chance to know her through her daughter, Mrs. Carroll was a vibrant and caring personality who always treated me with the utmost respect and kindness. She and Mr. Carroll raised a wonderful daughter who I am glad to have had the privilege to know, and who will carry their name well and with pride.

I will always think of Cathy as fun,witty,and generous. Although I was her hairdresser and CPA at times, Cathy was the one who always made me laugh and was a friend I could talk to about anything. I will miss you Cathy and our times together.

It's difficult to put into words everything that I'm thinking and feeling right now. Over the past 21 years I learned at a distance from you; courage, strength, determination, respect and the true meaning of unconditional love. Cathy you were such a smart woman with a quiet understanding. Thanks for sharing some of that wisdom to help me get through some difficult times. Thank you for showering my kids, your grandchild with love and affection....a cool grandmom who rocked out to Pink...
