My thoughts are with all of you. Miss Carter was such an important part of my childhood. I loved her dearly. I think of her everyday when I see the vase she gave me many years ago and the blanket she lovingly knitted for my high school graduation.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Miss Carter was such a special lady to so many people. Years ago she used to babysit for our children who are now grown and have children of their own. She was truly a southern lady who lived a full life serving others and her church. We were all blessed by knowing her and having her in our lives.
To the Carter family, please accept our condolences for the loss of someone so dear to you. We would like to share a Bible passage that has often comforted us – it is in Revelation chapter 21 verse 4. Again, you have our sympathy.
