To Jeanette(Carson Family) I pray that God will continue to hold you'all in the folds of his loving arms as you'all embrace the loss of your loving mom..Jeanette it has been awhile since the Willow days. However,I still remember the conversations when you spoke fondly of your Mom. I can only imagine the pain that you must be enduring..Rest assured in knowing that in the mist of it all he promised that "he would never leave or forsake you" .. love to you all..

St. Mary Byers was truly a wonderful person. I am really going to miss her. I've known her since I was a little child and she has always been very kind to me. She was very loving, honest, giving, compassionate and had a great sense of humor. She really was a joy to be around. I have great memories of her that I will always cherish. I'm very sad and heavy hearted to know that she has passed away.
My prayers and condolences are especially with Von, Cheryl and Penny. I can't begin to imagine how much this hurts. She was a good mother and she was very loved. I pray for your strength during this difficult time and I love you all.
