Linda:

Carl has only been gone a few days and I miss him terribly.What I will remember most is his sense of humor and his love of you.One of the last things he said to me in an email, when he told me of your desire to move, was that he did not care where it was as long as he could be with you.

Will remember him always.

Your loving sister Blanche
