“Carla was a sweet soul to work with. She was quiet, but very wise and witty. We would chat about my kids and her grandbabies and that brought her joy. Thanks for everything and rest in peace Carla! Matt”

“To the family, I am deeply sorry for your loss. I worked with Carla at CCHMC for almost 24 years…. wow time flies, it does not seem that long. I will miss reaching out to her on work related accounts and she would also reach out to me on certain accounts. I will miss her catching me up on all the CCHMC news (she used to sit near the kitchenette at lunch and get caught up on all the news and then get catch me up). She and I had a mutual love of Hardees cinnamon and raisin biscuits and talked many times about Franklin Covey planners. I saw a new Mickey Mouse watch recently and immediately thought of her… she loved her Mickey Mouse. I will miss talking to her. I was glad to have visited with her right before Christmas.”

“Lifting the family up in prayer during this time of Bereavement. My dear Carla, thank you for our laughs, our frustration with (ODM) lol. Thank you, for being there to help whenever I needed a hand or couldn’t remember something. Thank you for stories of all the deals you found on your weekly shopping adventures. But most of thank you for being a friend – Mona”

“Carla was one of the most interesting people I have met – while we met at work, her love of crafting (whatever captured her passion – jewelry making, paper crafting, quilling) made a fantastic bond between us. While seeming to be a very quiet person, she had a sharp wittiness about her and could always make me laugh. I will miss you, my friend and hope to craft with you when I meet you on the other side. Blessings.”
