My heartfelt Sympathy goes out to Carol, she and my sister Phyllis were in the same class at Howard High and remained lifelong friends. When Myrna's Mother was in the Nursing Home, Carols Husband, was there also, every time we drove to Howard to Visit Irene, I always stopped to see Carol. I wish we could be there for Carol at the Services but it is just not possible at this time of year. Carol will be in our prayers.
