To Aunt Goldie, Cousins Dickie and Dan:

My prayers are with you all. I will always remember Carol as a like soul to me, both a little sassy and independent, and a fellow school teacher! I will miss her, and I miss all of you.

I love you all!

I will always remember my visits to my grandmother, Urcal Hoseny, and looking forward to playing with Carol. We loved to splash in the puddles after a summer rain, build leaf houses in the fall and play under the large oak trees in front of her house. In July there were sparklers and walks to Eastern where we looked forward to becoming college students. I fondly remember the Fourth of July when we decorated her black dog with ribbons from my aunt's floral business and paraded it to Morton Park for the pet competition. We didn't win, but we had great fun. High School was just as much fun. I am so sad that I shall not see her again in this life. My sympathy to Goldie, Danny, Dick and their families.
