My heart is so sad. Carter came to the house the day we move it in. He was the 1st person I met (other than family) in Talbotton. He always made sure I was "ok" on this side of the hill. You have all been special to me. May the Lord bless you and guide you through the days and weeks ahead. Love you all!
