Carla will be missed so much! She had the biggest heart and would lend a hand to anyone who needed it! She loved to talk and talk and we would all listen because if we didn't listen she would get her finger out and point! She was so in love with Steve! They would dance and dance! She also loved her 2 kids and the 3 Grandbabies were her world! She told me last week she missed her mom so much! Carla I love and miss you! Rest in peace and enjoy being back with your mom!!

Carla was one of the kindest people i have ever known. She was always there to offer a smile, a word of kindness, or a helping hand to those who needed it, while seeking nothing in return. I am honored to have known her and call her my friend. She will be missed very much.
