Guestbook

  1. She was a wonderful lady. We had several phone conversations. The one time we visited at her home you could have not asked for a better host. She will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

  2. Mamaw was a big part of my life growing up. She will be greatly missed. I will carry the memories of them both in my heart forever. My sympathies to the family.

  3. Mike, Phyllis and family. It has been such a sweet pleasure to know Ms. Carrie. I will surely miss her and all our conversations. Prayers to you and your family. Diane Endsley

  4. Tammy, So sorry for the loss of your grandmother. I know how deeply you loved her and would do anything for her. May she finally be at peace.

  5. Family, may you find comfort in your loving memories and the warmth of family and friends. There is great hope in the promise at Revelation 21:4 when death and pain will be gone forever when Almighty God restores his original purpose for the earth. Then we may again see our loved ones whom we have lost in death (Acts 24:15). Please accept my condolences as you deal with your loss.
