My condolences to the family and friends of Carla Bruce Humphreys.  In every interaction I had with Carla in the long ago of our high school years, she seemed kind, knowing, stately, and wise --more mature than many of us and yet always kind even when she was amused at the sometimes silly behaviort of her classmates.  May her memory be a blessing to all who knew her.

Sending condolences to your family and friends.  I didn't know Carla very well but it is sad to hear of a member of your graduating class pass.  Gone too soon!
