Carol, my dear friend. It was a pleasure to know your mom. Nobody could call me Casey but her.  Take comfort in knowing that she lived a long life that was blessed with you and your dad of many years. She was blessed with a lovely home-going. She is singing with the Angels -she is in no pain and has her new body. It will get tough but remember...God makes no mistakes...We love our families but God loves them best.  God bless you and I'm here for you.

Mrs. Morton was so wonderful. I can remember all her beautiful plants and how I would go over to visit her when I was visiting my great grandmother Eleanor Burgess. She would tell me all about each plant and let me water them. She was always so sweet to my Aunt Leslie too. I remember her smiles and how she always brightened my day and made me feel special. We will be praying for your family.

Carol, I am so sorry to hear about your mom.  I wish I could come to the funeral but I want you to know that you and all of your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.  Please let me know if there is anything I can do.  Love you.

My thoughts are with you.  Your mother was an important part of my family.  She was such a good cook and gardener --- and always greeted you with and left you with a smile.  Carol you are an important part of my family, too.-- Nancy Dowell
