    My thoughts and prayers are with you Jerry, Brian and Scott, and the
    Archdekin family. It’s hard to let go of those we love, but we know that
    Carolyn is now whole and perfect once again, no longer confined in a body
    that won’t allow her to do the things she loves. She is now strolling the
    streets of heaven and preparing the perfect place for each and every one she
    loves. You will find years down the road, you’ll be working on some task,
    and all of a sudden you will realize, you are doing it just the way she
    always did. You’ll smile, and maybe even shed a tear as you realize, she is
    always with you. Love to you all.
