CARRIE'S MEMORIAL

Carrie was very generous and caring. She was also a loyal friend and I got to talk to her a lot and we would talk about what had happened in her life at John Reed. She would also tell me a lot of family stories and that was where Lisa came in to help explain to me what Carrie was saying was happening. Carrie was so outgoing and eager to move in to the Crumley apartment before her passing. Before going home to John Reed she would always tell us, "I love you guys." And that is the memory that I will always have stand out to me and in my heart. ~Justin

Carrie was an inspiration. She knew she had a long road to hoe, but she never gave up. She had the heart of a lion and she was funny. She was my "peanut butter buddy". I will never forget each time it was her birthday, she had them make her a no-sugar peanut butter pie and she always sent me a piece. One year she was cutting me a piece and dropped the whole pie on the floor and didn't get any for herself. It made me feel quite quilty, but she laughed about it. She will be greatly missed by me. We always had each other's back. ~Trish

Carrie was an inspiration to me. She was so sweet and nice. I know I will miss her terribly. I knew Carrie the whole time I have been at Crumley. She has been a good friend to me, but I know that she is in a better place than here with me. ~Jeff

A FRIEND - a poem by Randy

Carrie was a very good friend of mine.

Anytime I needed a friend

She was always there.

But a lot of people think that now she is gone

They should be sad.

But I see it as a happy time.

No more pain, no more wheelchair.

She will be made whole

Carrie will be complete again.

And she is with her son whom she loved.

Now she is spending eternity with him

And making him laugh and smile.

GOD BE WITH CARRIES FAMILY DRAW THEM CLOESTO YOU JUSTIN....

Nashville

I went to the CMA fest in Nashville, TN and met alot of stars, but I knew one in particular star in the making. The star in the making is a Curb Records recording artist, Ashley Gearing. We talked a few minuets before her show set at 4:00 P.M. , but I also got to know other country stars such as Steel Magnolias and Jay Collins written songs and now he is trying to get in the music business himself. Sure it was hot all week in Nashville, but we survived the 95 degree heat index.

Poems

Here is some poetry by Amanda

AN OPEN HEART

Come to the Lord with an open heart,

Worship him and do your part,

Spread out your arms and raise them high,

Take a glance at the beautiful sky,

Let us go and praise our king,

We shall celebrate and we shall sing,

Precious gifts to him we'll bring.



I COME TO THE LORD

I come to the Lord and I know he excepts my best,

He rescues my heart and he gives me rest,

People come by many different types,

If you dare to touch Jesus' stripes

you will propably not heat any gripes,

But be aware that if you drift apart,

God will no longer protect your heart,

Come out and see God's shining sun,

Heavenly life has just begun.

Helping Animals

In March our "Helping Others" focus was animals in animal shelters. We got together and made toys and objects for cats and dogs. We also sorted coins and rolled them to use as an additional donation.

Kym planted some catnip for future projects.

Roberto puts old tennis balls into tube socks for dog toys.

We used egg trays to sort the coins and sorted nickles, pennies and dimes to put in the coin rolls.

Dog chews from weaving old fabric together.

Catnip "mice" from the fingers of fuzzy gloves.

Tennis balls and plastic waters in tube socks for dog toys.
