MORE BAD NEWS.... :-(

Hi, Carron,

I just heard that Debbie (Noe) Carson's daughter died last night in a car accident. Carla (Etten) Null phoned me. Debbie's husband, Mike Carson, is Carla's cousin. I heard that Deb's daughter was a backseat passenger without a seatbelt on, and was ejected from the car when they swerved to miss some deer.

Just needed to tell someone. Debbie was a very good friend of my sister, Tammy.

Sad.
