YO...PEACHIE,
Thanks for checking on me. Yes it's been rough down here. There have been several Celebrations of Life for Carlie at the different churches here in town. The TV stations have covered them all,and believe me, it's been heart wrenching. The family has elected on a private funeral, which I believe will be a good thing for them. The funeral homes in the area have donated everything....one will do the embalming, another the caskit, and another the plot. They have received so much food, that one of the stores here in town gave them another fridge to keep it al in. The generosity in this town has been over whelming.
It's definately not over with...THE MONSTER'S attorney asked for a new venue, but the Judge said there would be no where in the whole United States that would be a good place. He has also asked for a gag order to stop the press...that ain't happening either!
The church where they found her body (behind in a field) planted a magnolia tree last night in her honor.
Sorry to ramble, but yes, it's been a terrible time here. Even though everyone in Sarasota didn't know her, we ALL feel like she was ours!
BOB
