Cara's kindness, love, and empathy touched the hearts of everyone around her. Her light is deeply missed by all of us, but we find comfort and strength knowing she has found peace in the arms of Jesus. Our Angel has returned home, where there is no pain, and we look forward to seeing her again in Heaven. Thank you God for blessing our lives with such an amazing woman.
