We enjoyed Caroline very much. She was so very interesting to talk with.
I enjoyed her crafts. We had many dinners together and then playing games.
Your children and grandchildren were very lucky to have you in their lives.
We will miss you.
Love Doris and Ray.

Our deep sympathy goes to Caroline's (Nana's) family for the loss of such a wonderful mother and grandmother. We knew her as our next-door neighbor in Middleton for the past seventeen years. We did a lot of back-yard visiting with her over the years and enjoyed her cheerfulness and her informed outlook on various topics. She was always willing to do favors such as caring for our flowers when we were gone. We will miss her.
