Personal note from Carla's Family

We would like to extend our gratitude and thanks for the generous amount of support we have received during this time. In lieu on flowers and food, we ask that you consider donating to Jacob's (Carla's youngest son) Up 'til Dawn page in support of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (link below). All three of her children (Kathleen, Rachel, Jacob) were dedicated to the Up 'til Dawn program during their time at the University of Memphis, and our mom was always their biggest supporter. Please prayerfully consider making a donation in our mom's honor.
