Dear Jarrett, We are sitting in Salinas, CA on this Wednesday 6-11-08. So glad this website is still available to express my heart. Your mama was a mother who is beyond words, not only to me but to all who knew her. When you think of Jarrett, you think of Irene and vice versa. I can only hope the same will be said about Autumn and myself. I can never ever thank you and your mama for sharing your home place for me many nights to rest my head. I'll never forget the time we went camping. Your mom and I shared your pop-up camper. Jarret, I will never forget you and your mama attending the auction of dad's place, just being there for me to buy something only to give it back to me so that I'd have something of his...wow!!! Then there's the Christmas you and your mom visited. I'll get copies of those photos to you. She's with our Sweet LORD now and I for one will go looking for her when my time gets here. She's a Saint, an Angel, a Friend, a Beautiful Lady that certainly left a life-long impression on me and the kind of woman I'd like to fashion myself to be. What a Blessing to Know your mother, Irene Barr Poe! With all my love and gratitude...Carolyn
