Dearest Ewing family,My heart is so deeply saddened and grieving as I learn about Carlene. I was not even aware of her illness. Though I so deeply regret not having known,,distance,time and health could not lessen the deep respect,admiration,friendship and love I feel for each and all of you.You included me in your family and were my family,filling the void of losing my own.You all are the sweetest,closest,most loving and spiritual family I have ever known.I can never thank you enough for including me. Carlene's name is on my medical records as the next of kin and first contact number. I entrusted her with my health and my life. Both Mr. Ewing and Carlene have( had) the utmost integrity.Carlene had so many gifts and talents,whether teaching ,organizing,cooking,sewing etc. She organized my things and helped me move, a huge feat, and altered my wedding dress just to name a couple of so many things she did to help me.She was a wonderful and selfless friend.Her greatest passion and love was her family. She included them,Mr. Ewing,her children and the grandchildren in every conversation. She lived for them. We should all be so blessed to have someone love us so deeply. May God bless and keep each and all of you and give you His continued,protection, love and peace. In love and prayers, Jill Allain Dean.
