The Lano Family
Carrie was one of my first cousins. We grew up around Sunday dinners and playing in the yard at our grandparents. When my mom passed away, Carrie was very vigilant in keeping in touch with me by phone calls and facebook. That really helped me get through some rough days. I can’t believe we have to say bye for now at such young ages in our lives but, I will miss you Carrie and Love you always! Janet
Crystal,
I am very sorry to hear about your sister. Please tell your Mom and Dad I am praying for them. Peace to all of you in this sad time. Love you, _üôè
Dear Bill, Pat and Carrie’s whole family. My brothers and I were childhood friends of Bill’s in Great Bridge. I am so very sorry for your loss and will be praying for God to hold you in his arms as you go through this difficult time.
Dear Mike and family, we are very sorry for your loss. Praying for you all. Rob and Maureen Murden
Dear Pat, Bill and family,
Carrie was my very first employee through the DECA program at Great Bridge High. Mine was a small military greeting card company in its infancy and there were times when things were so demanding that if we didn’t ACT like nuts, we would GO nuts and Carrie was a hoot. She was kind and hard working and always good for a laugh to lighten the mood and relieve the tension. She was a joy to work with.
Though I sorrow for your loss, I rejoice over Carrie’s gain of eternal life with Christ. We will meet again.
I am so sorry to hear that Carrie has passed away. The family is in my thoughts and prayers.

May God be with you Carrie and may you rest in peace by his side.
May God be with and Comfort the entire family. Rest in Peace my friend until we meet again.
May God’s comfort bring peace in your hearts knowing that you will see carrie again in Heaven. I am so upset that I won’t be able to be at either services for Carrie as I can’t get off work and Wed, night I have to be at my church to do Bible Study. My manager at work is on vacation and it just leaves me and the asst. mgn. there. I am the only delivery driver. I am passing this obituary on to family. Love you folks and I am in prayer for you in your loss.
May our Lord bless and comfort you and your family during this time of grief. Please accept my sincere condolences.
Mike, my deepest sympathy to you and your family. Keeping you all in my prayers.
My heart goes out to Carrie’s family. Carrie was a gentle, caring and wonderful friend growing up. I have a lot of fond memories of her between school, 4-H, horses etc. She will be missed. This world was a better place just because she was here and now there is a new angel in heaven to watch over her family & friends. Rest in peace Carrie.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I love Carrie very much and am very saddened by the news of her passing.
Please accept my deepest sympathy. Carrie will always be remembered as a childhood friend with many years of good times and laughter shared during my summer visits. May God keep her and give the family strength . Gloria Smith Walizer

We are so sorry to hear about Carrie. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of the family.
Mr. & Mrs. Barnett,
Mike and crystal;
I wish I knew the words to say that could lift the sadness of your loss but I am afraid I have no words that will do that. I can only offer you my condolences and pray that this will help carry you until the day you are together again. The short time Carrie was with us she touched many lives. I know she made a lasting impression on every one she ever met and the world is a dimmer place without her in it, but what an angel God received the day He called Carrie home. Carrie, you are at peace in the arms of our heavenly Father. May your bright light shine on in memories until we meet again. Always smiling and a friend to everyone you knew; although we lost contact over the years, I always knew I had a friend in you. I will keep you all in my prayers.
