The Garberding Family

Please help this beautiful family through their time of immeasurable loss.  Carrie was a wife, daughter, friend, niece, and cousin; but her biggest role and definitely her biggest joy was being mom to Gabrielle (13) and Kendall (10).  Carrie always had a warm smile and would be there in a second for a friend in need.  She was fiercely loyal and always stood up for what was right.  She was young, vibrant, and full of life and love.  Carrie had a kindness about her that drew you to her.  She was my friend and I will miss her every day. 

In an incredibly sudden set of horrible events Carrie got very sick this last weekend. She spent four days in the ICU where she fought with the strength we all knew her to have.  Unfortuantely she lost the battle and we said our final goodbyes on Wednesday.  She was surrounded by friends, family, and lots of love.

Carrie was married to Aaron who was active in the North Lake community for years.  Even before they had kids, Aaron volunteered and donated his time to the Little League softball program, coaching many of our daughters.  He and his family gave selflessly to our families and I know that we can all return the favor.

Please help this family by easing some of the financial burden of this sudden and tragic loss.  Any little bit helps and is so appreciated.
