Sending my deepest condolences to the family

To the Sanders Family, my family and I would like to send our condolences to you all. Carolyn was a good friend. She had such sweet sons and brother. Sending our love and Prayers to you all.
I will miss you dearly my sweet Ma. You were always there for me since 1966, the year you married my dad. You advocated for me, supported dad in those matters, and have been a mother to me more than my birth mother. I am blessed with fond & loving memories to reflect on. As I, and the family left behind, get used to the loss of your loving hugs, your sweet and supportive wisdom and sense of humor, we lift you up. Your love of nature will always be a constant reminder that you are near. Especially the hummingbirds. We love you Deb and Carl
