I just reread Mrs. Carrie Trosclair's obituary tonight and was so shocked to note that it clearly states that her daughter, Paulette Locke, predeceased her in death. I did not know this very sad fact, so please forgive me. I extended condolences to Paulette in my previous message. This family has had so many losses in a relatively short period of time. I leave my sincere condolences to her remaining daughter and the rest of this dear woman's family. She was a joy to know. Love always, Sandy

I have nothing but the most positive memories of Mrs. Carrie Trosclair. It was she, in her big station wagon, who provided me and a carload of students a ride to and from Woodrow Wilson Junior High each school day during the seventh and eighth grades. Those were happy days, and Mrs. Trosclair was a big part of them. Always happy and cheerful, she was a sweet mother figure to all of her young passengers. How could be not help but love her? Thanks for the memories! We were lucky to have had her in our lives. My deepest condolences go to Paulette and the rest of Carrie's family.

I have been wondering about my Aunt Carrie for some time now. I remember as a child she and Uncle Paul would come and visit our family. When I saw the beautiful picture of her it bought back so many fond memories. I am so very sorry to hear of her passing. Thoughts and prayers with her and her family.
