Dear Mrs. Harlow, Rochelle, Charmaine and Mark,
It is so hard to know what to say at a time like this. I have been a part of your family since I was a nine year old girl. During the majority of my growing up years, as Rochelle's best friend, I was lucky enough to have Mr. and Mrs. Harlow as my "other" parents and Mark and Charmaine as my "other" brother and sister. My memories are plenty. My list as long as Marco's if not longer. And Marco's sentiments are spot on..."To know Bud is to love Bud." And I did love him. I feel so fortunate to have had him, and all of you, as a part of my life. I cannot imagine my childhood without your home as my retreat; without Rochelle as my best friend; without Mr. and Mrs. Harlow as my other parents caring for me like one of their own. These memories are the ones I will hold close to my heart. And I pray you will find comfort in all of your beautiful memories of your husband and father. My thoughts and love are with you today and always.
Love,
Carrie##imported-begin##Carrie Magnuson##imported-end##
