Dear Laura and Michelle, I was one of your Dad's Bel Canto choir members from the Class of 1969. Both of your parents meant a great deal to me. Your Mom was always there supporting your Dad in all that he did with the vocal music department at Franklin High School in Livonia, Michigan. Heaven now has both your Mom and your Dad together and the praises being sung to the Jesus they loved are even more joyful now. I'm so sorry that both of them left this earth too soon but they will always be in the hearts of all who loved and respected them so deeply.

Michele and Laura, I am so sorry for your loss. Mom Ballard was such a great complimentary part with your father to our Livonia Franklin Choir [1985]. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.

Knowing Carolyn has been one of our great delights! Sandy met Carolyn thru Relay for Life and I was introduced as Sandy participated in relay for her mother. As everyone knows, Carolyn always had a smile and interest in meeting a new 'friend'. We are so glad that we got to share her enthusiasm for life for the past seven years. She will be missed,
but remembered fondly by many!

My wife and I were so sorry to learn, in our Livonia Observer Newspaper today, of Carolyn's recent passing. We have so many wonderful memories of her as Secretary of LPS Randolph Elementary School. Her smiling face and always caring and positive attitude, on the job and off, greeted every principal, teacher, parent, student, and visitor, who passed through the office there. We send our love ad sincere sympathy to all in the family at this difficult time. May Carolyn rest in peace with her dear husband in the arms of our loving Savior in Heaven forever. Sincerely, Fred and Pat Mack

I remember your mom's spirit from when I met her at one of the Franklin High School choir rehearsals as I was one of your dad's students. It was when she had first first been diagnosed with breast cancer. I was about to send a letter telling her how much your dad meant to me as I only realized it within the last few weeks. I would like to share it with you, but it doesn't seem appropriate to share it here. I'm sorry she never got to read it.
