I have known my Aunt Carla for most of my life, she knew my dad who passed away in 72 when I was 8 years old, and she would tell me stories of them hanging out at parties and I loved that she shared those memories with me. I remember so many good times with Carla we would hang out with my grandma Mccourtie and my uncle Mike on weekends laughing and having a great time even when Randy was in the military and before they were married. We cut up and laughed and went to drive in movies and shared some really great times. After Carla and Randy were married, we would all have fun times on weekends together and in my teenage years I would spend summers with them and what fun we had playing cards and going to drive in movies again hahaha. Carla had a wonderful sense of humor and could make you laugh till your belly hurt. One year Randy and Carla took me to Disneyworld in Florida and we had a blast. Carla taught me how to dance back in the 70s hehehe, she loved disco music as i did in my teenage years. She taught me how to do the "hustle" the "box" and other dance moves in my bedroom. We really were close all my life and I am going to miss her dearly. She was always someone you could talk to and she would listen and give great advice. I loved her dearly and will miss her tremendously, she was always there for me and by my side through good times and bad times. I pray that she is in heaven with her mom and so many lost relatives and friends. Lord please accept this wonderful woman into your kingdom, welcome her with open arms as you are getting a true jewel. I am going to miss my dear aunt and dear friend but know she is in the Lord's hands. Lord please provide comfort to our family and friends during this difficult time.

I'm  heartbroken to here the news. I truly love you,  Randy. Abby, and our boy Todd. I will care for him and tell him mommy loves him and always with him. I know he knew when you were with him and loved all the musical and moving animation you brought him plus the love.

I haven't see my Aunt Carla in many years...She was always a hoot! She was so funny, but so kind and loving! I know she will be missed dearly. All of my family there especially my Uncle Randy has been in my prayers. 

Love,
Danielle

Carla Sue was a very sweet cousin of mine. Growing up she always had a wonderful smile and would make us laugh. She was a devoted mother to Todd and a devoted daughter to her mother and took care of her mother until Aunt Jerry's death. My heart goes out to her brother Gary.
Carla has always kept in touch with my Mother. Always coming to visit, sending cards for every holiday. She has been such a joy to my mother who went to Assisted Living a year ago. 
Randy is a wonderful husband and best friend to Carla. I'm so glad he served our country in the military and came back safely. My heart goes out to him and his family as well. I am very happy to know that Carla is now with her Lord and savior and that we will see one another again. Thank you Lord for giving us Carla and for the inspiration and love she provided to each of us.
Love, Jeannie and on behalf of Mrs. Tom (Jean) Autry.

Carla was such a wonderful sister in Law and was loved by all . She was so loving and kind.We have some very happy memories of times together . For the past 30 years we have talked on the phone every morning , we teased her about being my weather lady , she kept me informed as to what the weather was going to be for that day . A lovely lady that will be missed so much . Im so happy she is in Heaven with our Lord and Savior . LOve Anita
