My deepest condolences to Raymond and all of Carla´s family. I dearly loved my sister. She was a wonderful person and made me feel loved. We were able to spend some quality time together when they lived in Utah. I will always cherish our relationship and wish I could be there to comfort and console Raymond in person. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers as Carla is laid to rest. I know that she has been greeted with loving arms and will be free from pain and sorrow. May God bless you all.

Dear sister, you are a light still in my life, and a model to look up to. You blessed this world just being in it. You are already missed of course, but will always be remembered in thought, heart and mind. I am sorry I cannot be at the service, but family, please know I am in spirit with my husband there in body with his best friend, her son Darrell, my nephew. And thank you and Ray too for giving me so many kids to play with! Blessing loved ones!
Gemze, baby sis
