My deepest condolences to the family and friends. When I heard of Jeannie's illness I prayed often to the creator to give her strength. She was always near in my thoughts. May knowing others are thinking of you give you all strength through this difficult time. Sending Hugs and Prayers. She was a beautiful lady and now the creator has a special teacher along side of him. R.I.P.

I knew Carrie as a brand new Cayuga language teacher many years ago. I always admired her views on the importance of knowing our languages and she was dedicated to the task of keeping Cayuga alive like her mother and aunties and uncle. Carrie will be missed.
