This is terribly sad news, Carla was there for my family after my gramma passed, we played women’s pool league together for years and she worked with me when I cared for my clients at her funeral home. She was a sweet, kind and special person. My love and comfort goes to her family and friends. She will be missed.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Carla was such a wonderful, giving and loving person. I know she has found peace and a few card and dice games. What a profound loss for Lodi.
