    Dear Jim, Bryan, and Erik,

    I will miss my cousin Carole, and our phone conversations that would go on for hours at times. Although we have not seen each other for many years, we shared a common bond. I am at such a loss for words.

    May God Bless you all in your time of loss.

    Love,
    Cousin Liz
