I am very sorry for your family’s loss.
Caroline was a very good friend all through high school.
We lost track of each other after that.
I did see her at our last class reunion and were joyed at that.
Please accept my deepest apologies.
Remember all the good times.
Fred, Mark, Fran and all the Hagan family,
We are so sad to hear of Caroline’s passing. She was such a beautiful women inside and out. The love that comes from a big family is endless. It all starts with a mother with so much love like yours.
Love,
The Bova’s
Mark and Fran,
I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.
