Sunday, July 26th, 2009, Angels were sent to be heavenly escorts to take Carol home where she has now taken her place in Heaven. Retired from Ballard Hospital after more than 20 years of service. Her passion, being self taught, was doing options trading where she had great success.

Our loss has been great and we shall all miss her dearly. Funeral Service Monday, August 3, 2009 at 10:00am Wiggen & Son’s Funeral Home, 2003 NW 57th, Seattle, WA 98107.

Mom. I miss you so very much. You’ve always said, ‘what would we ever do with out you’? But Moma, what am I ever going to do without YOU? I will never forget the times we spent together, laughing, crying, living, and loving. I thank God for blessing me with You as my Mother. Thankyou, for all that you have done and all that you were. You not only was my Mom, my best friend as well, You ARE my idol, and the one I most adore. There’s a gigantic void now that your gone, for You were my life, my very soul and Im finding it hard to find meaning to live on. I miss You Moma! Until we meet again, I Love you. Your daughter Cynthia

Dear mom,
God saw you getting tired. When a cure was not to be,
He closed his arms around you and whispered, ”Come to Me”.
In tears we saw you sinking. We watched you fade away.
Our hearts were almost broken, you fought so hard to stay.
But when we saw you sleeping so peacefully free from pain,
We could not wish you back to suffer so again.
So keep your arms around her Lord, and give her special care.
Make up for all she suffered and all that seemed unfair.
If roses grow in Heaven Lord
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother’s arms
and tell her they’re from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it everyday,
But there is an ache within my heart
That will never go away.
I love you so much mom, and I miss you so bad words cant describe. Please wait for me at the table of our lord, I will be there soon when my work here is done.
your son,
William
Aunt Carrie will be truly missed by all of us. The little time we shared and her support during her sister’s illness and passing left lasting memories of her compassion, giving heart and love of life. She is truly
one of GODS angels.
Only Close Your Eyes
Now that I have departed, please try not to be sad. Allow the memories to flow in your mind and remember the good times we spent together. Because I will never leave you, I’ve been saying it since the beginning. You only have to close your eyes and smile at those images flowing from your heart. Although we cannot share a smile anymore and I cannot show you my love, remember the place that I have gone. I am with my God in a much better place. There will be many times later, when you seek me and I am no longer there, stop…. and know that I am beside you. Never forget how much I have loved you. God has called me to his Kingdom to be with him. And I will wait patiently to meet with you again, because although you are suffering now, with the love of God, I know you will survive the pain.
