Fran and Carl Junior,
I am blessed to have met you through Carl. We haven’t spent face to face much time together but I can say confidently that there were times that I felt I was part of the family. I sensed the love and the care you both had for him. We prayed together (through texts) but our hearts were always connected and concerned for this good man.
Fran,
You are a true example of a loving wife. You stayed by Carl side through it all. That’s true love and rare nowadays. I saw it and I know everyone that have been close to you did also. God will reward you in abundance ways for staying patient, committed even at times when Carl was cranky and not cooperating.
May our Lord Jesus bless you and Junior and rest Carl Sr’s soul in heaven.
Amen
Sincerely,
Dale Turner
Here's to you Carl! To good times and good friends! You will always be in our thoughts. Hope you are playing cards with all the Aries up there. Until we meet again, Rest in Peace our friend. Love, Jamie and Steph ❤
