Dear Cotton and Wanda, I will always remember all the fun times we had doing anything and everything together. These were the best of times. May God give you comfort, peace and beautiful memories during your time of grief. I loved Carl and I love both of you. You and your mom have always been so good to me and I will always be grateful for your loving friendship. God truly blessed me with your family.
