Sleep Well Carla.
I first met Carla, when I was 11yrs old ( she would have been 15). She was part of my American family. I remember thinking how beautiful she was. At a big family reunion, I remember, sitting with her & Randy and them asking me to say " rose " over and over again, just because they loved my English accent.
Many years had past and after about 13yrs, I spoke to Carla on the phone about 2 weeks before she passed away. It was lobely speaking to her, and we laughed about how she loved my accent!!
I was shocked and saddened to hear of her passing.
My thoughts are with all her family.
Much love to you all.
Amanda, ( cousin from England)

Carla was one of my former patients, she was so sweet and caring, she always would tell me that she hadn't smiled all day til she saw me, Carla loved her son and always worried about him before herself but that's what us mother's do. I got to see her last year and there was that smile and I often would think about her and wonder how she's doing she will always be in thought's....prayers go out to the family so sorry for your loss she was a very sweet lady....

Carla was always a sweet lady. I've known her for 25 plus years. Baby sat her son Timmy when he was young. Carla loved him dearly. Her pride and joy. I will be praying for him and the family. Praying the lord brings you all the comfort you will need during this hard time. Carla kiss my momma on the cheek and tell her how much I miss her.
