I am so so sorry you are having to go through this and I know exactly what you are going through.  OUr son, Ian, who has a page here on this site, took his life on March 23, also in Ft. Collins.  He and Karla are the same age.  We have struggled with all the usual questions, gone through the anger, guilt and denial common when faced with this situation, and I can tell you that it is very hard, and you will grieve for a very long time.  But with the help of our wonderful family and friends, who are keeping us in their prayers, along with our own prayers, we are surviving.  Someone told me to just take it one day at a time and that's what we do.  Some days are better than others.  My mother in law gave me a book that was written by a mother after her son died.  It is called ""My son...my son...A guide to Healing after Death, Loss or suicide"" by Iris Bolton.  My husband and I both read it and thought it was helpful.
My heart goes out to you and your family and I hope you can find whatever helps you through this horrible time of grief.  I will keep Karla in my prayers.  She looks like a beautiful, happy young woman.   So did my Ian, keeping all his pain inside for so many years, and just showing the world what they wanted to see. Peace, love and God's all giving grace be with you and your family and Karla's friends. 
with understanding and love,  Sue Ann Bacheller

To Karla's family,
Karla was such a wonderful young lady and so much fun to be around. 
She was so sweet and especially enjoyed doing science experiments with her friends in class.  I pray that God will give His loving grace and peace to your family at this most difficult time.

There are no words to console a parent that have lost a child.  May God's arms embrace your family and fill your hearts with comfort. We have never met and probably never will but know that you are in my prayers for God led me to this page.

I am so sorry to hear of Karla's death. Karla was a fun, energetic, loving person. I enjoyed her smiles and fun attitude so much at CLPJH. I pray you feel God's great comfort at this sad time.

I worked with Karla many years ago.  She was a very special young lady and one of my favorite kids to work with.  I'm so sorry to hear she has passed.  To her friends and family, my prayers are with you.   May God surround you in love and support and bring you much comfort!

Dear Tracy, After working with Clem for many years, my family and young girls got to know you and Karla. Karla took my girls on rides through the snow to pick out a Christmas tree. We are in shock and so deeply saddened. May God's golden eye provide you strength. 
Larry Leinhart and Family

Was so sad to hear of Karla.  I taught her at CLP and FRCC.  Her smile was contagious and she made everyone feel better.  She will be missed tremendously by all who knew her.  My sympathy to the DeFrancesco Family.

It is with profound sadness and grief that I write to you over the loss of your beautiful child.  I cannot even begin to imagine your pain and sorrow. Please accept our most sincere and heartfelt condolences. David and Lisa Herrera
