This letter was written by Ashleigh and given to our Pastor, just before Carly's funeral to be read aloud. None of us had read what Ashleigh had written before the service. I don't think that there was a dry eye in the entire funeral home.
Hopefully, you all can click on the letter to make it bigger and make it easier for you to read.
I will share more about the beautiful service another day. And beautiful it was.
Siblings are a blessing...

Thank you for sharing the letter. I am crying and my daughter Lily is looking at me saying "don't be sad mommy", which makes me cry harder. I look at Lily and imagine her being taken from me. i imagine what your minutes must feel like since that awful day. It is just too sad! Too unexpected. I pray for your family everyday.

Tears again reading this letter; I don't doubt there were any dry eyes...
No dry eyes here, either. Beautiful letter. Carly was truly loved and has made her lasting impression in the world.
My heart goes out to you and your family. I can't imagine and I don't know what to say. I'm guessing there really isn't anything that I can say to make you feel better. I so wish I could! Just know I am thinking about you and praying you can find some peace and comfort.
I love this letter. Honestly I was crying as soon as your blog loaded and I saw Carly's sweet face. This letter is so heart warming. What a wonderful big Sister she has :)
