Molly, you were one of a kind! We have so many beautiful memories together that I will always cherish. From the birth of Colton to Allyssa’s baby shower and everything in between. I sure wish we could have made a few more. I know you will be watching over us, especially all of your grandchildren that you loved so dearly. Hug Larry BIG for me! It’s not goodbye but see you later. Love you!

I can't believe this is real. You were like a mom to me. You were there when I had no where to go when you had the A frame house. We went through so much together while I was there. So many amazing years ago. We will see each other again one day. You will be missed so very much. I love you so very much

Molly, I won’t be able to hear you say” well hey Carroll”anymore until I see you again!
Many years have passed since I first met you, I remember it sooo well, it was Christmas time at Lucy’s , Gary and his family were there, Olivia was just a baby , Jeff and Elizabeth came, we all packed into that small apartment so full of love and togetherness! This same feeling came several times when you and Mike shared Thanksgiving with us over the years.
You were a woman who loved deeply, shared your heart with those around you , laughed until it hurt and fought like a mama bear for those you loved!
Walking alongside you through pain and loss, was a view into your heart, though it was shattered, you made it back . I know when you exhaled the air of earth for the last time, you inhaled celestial air for your next breath. I loved you Molly!

Molly was a joy to be around. She always had something positive to say. When we worked together at D's Coffee Shop many moons ago, we always had fun laughing stuff. She was a great contribution to my life back then. I wish I could be there as she takes her last ride and say goodbye to her. I'll see her again someday in that mansion in the sky.

My sister was a loving sister, wife, mother, and grandmother. She was a fantastic cook in her own right.
Among several places she worked was D’s Coffee Shop there in Tyler, Texas. She had many co-workers and customers that became good friends. I believe Mike and Molly met at D’s back many years ago. She worked there until she had some health issues and finally quit.
Growing up she always was going and doing her own thing. She didn’t always do what might have been expected. She went her own way. As her “little brother” I was always taking up for her when there were questions about things.
I will definitely miss her, and miss talking to her. I loved her very much. So hard to believe Gary and her are both gone now, especially four months apart.
I love you Sis! Hope to see you in heaven someday.
