Carol Earnshaw Ersbak

At SPHS 40th reunion, Carol and I renewed a long time friendship. I love this dear friend for all the reasons many of you shared. Carol introducied me to "The Beatles", shared numerous Dodger stories, hosted my journey through her beloved Hawaii, staying at her home inLeilani Estates, sharing our love for family, always her twin daughters a priority! Visiting our home in Washington, Aunty Carol, loved up our son and cheered his high school baseball pitching on to a 3-0 record, on her visits. Certain the Lord has given this Aloha woman a front row box seat. I will deeply miss my friend, as her daughters shared, "fun, crazy and wonderful mom." Mahalo Carol! 

Fare thee well, Carol, my quirky, vivacious friend. 

Hail the Traveler!
We commit you back from where you came—
to the arms of your ancestors.
May there be peace where there was anger.
May there be healing where there was hurt.
Go quickly to the place that your old ones called home.
For those who grieve for your passing, let there be healing.
For those who grieve for who you were, let there be healing.
For those who grieve for what you could have been, let there be healing.
Hail the Traveler. We celebrate your journey.
