Dear Mary-Lu and family, My deepest sympathy to you all. I was so sad to hear of Carroll’s death. The suddenness of it came as a real shock. She was such a dear kind soul and I will miss our telephone calls very much. She, Gay, Moya Judy and Peter were so much like my own family growing up and we never lost that closeness. I am sorry not to be able to go to her funeral but will be thinking of you all. Lots of love, Marion
