Mu-Mu had the sweetest, most soothing voice. I just loved her! She was so positive and always made me feel welcome. She made me laugh. A strong woman with a big heart. A true lady. I will miss you Mu-Mu! Thank you for the memories. Say Hi to Nana for me! Much love to all of you. Xoxo

Mu-Mu, you were one of the most kindest people I’ve ever met. Your smile and positive aura was a delight to be around. I have many childhood memories at your home in Michigan that I cherish because of you. Thank you for including me. Sending prayers to the Carroll Family as they deal with the loss of such a beautiful person.

Sweet MuMu, busy dancing in heaven! I loved hearing about her over the years and finally getting to meet her in Arizona (while we spent the evening discussing life as Michiganders) - she was such a sweet, fun, amazing person - I know she will be so missed (but she will be sending love to all of you from above - just look for the signs ;)) So much love to MuMu’s family <3

Grandma I can't think of a single memory with you that doesn't make me smile. You made sure everyone was included and felt important. Helping you in the kitchen I learned to ensure the plate was colorful and that everything tastes better with butter and lots of salt. I am working everyday to try and have your incredible outlook on life and be there for others.
Lastly, I plan on continuing your glass of wine tradition and I know that you will not judge me if I occasionally have an extra glass for you.

Oh My Dear Mu-Mu, You will never know just how much you meant to me. Thank you for letting me be in charge of the grocery list when I was a kid and we went grocery shopping, it helped me feel accomplished. Thank you for all of the beautiful holidays, they made me believe in magic and the importance of family gatherings. Thank you for letting me hold the map when you let me tag along on all of our road trips, it take get me the sense of adventure and confidence. Thank you for each Mu-Mu and Marjon day together, they made me feel special. Thank you for each conversation, they taught me to find my voice. Thank you most of all for your love, it made me feel safe and secure. Here is to my Mu-Mu, the one the only. May you know just how much you changed this world for the better.
