Too many and too fast we lose a loved one. Today we received news that Karl's great aunt, Carol, has passed away from a mean fight with stomach cancer. She was a wonderful woman. Many in the family say Lulu reminds them of her. Carol always had a smile on her face. We were lucky enough to visit her and Jiggs three times, which was never enough time. Every visit she engaged us in laughter, sharing great stories of the past, and took care of us. She and Jiggs introduced us to Tripology, adding to our gaming addiction. She ignited our interest in genealogy, always bringing out her and Jiggs family tree project (which was several pages long). She gave Lulu an aloe plant and a "corn" plant owned by Grandma Kaliher, as well as a jean skirt. Those plants love on through generations due to love and care. She loved our children and she loved cheese and chocolate. She would always comment about the "Kalihers of Virginia" and "us Kaliher women". Once every tw-three months we would receive a "love" note from Carol and Jiggs, passing on some recipes, stories, or a memory. We treasure her humor and take on life. We never saw a time when she wasn't smiling. Even when Jiggs and her were arguing there was always a smile on her face. We are completely heart-broken she is gone. We hope you enjoy the video tribute below for her as we remember a wonderful woman, mother, and friend.
