Some of you may or may not have seen the article in the Pilot last Wed about the little girl in Carthage that died. She was my daughter's best friend. We moved here when the girls were 3 1/2 and they called each other "BFF".  It has been a heartbreaking week for the whole family.  On top of that, they now have to deal with medical and funeral expenses.  They had no health insurance and no life insurance at all.  The father was a self employed plumber and mom stayed at home.  The family has set up a memorial fund for her to help cover expenses.  It's at RBC Centura bank (any location) and it is under the Kraven Lee Carlisle Memorial Fund.  If you knew this family in any way at all could you please help?  Any little bit is appreciated, even if it's only a few dollars.  I know we hear these stories alot in the net and wonder how true they really are.  This one hits close to home and I just wanted to help spread the word for the family.  There are obituaries in the Pilot, Sanford Herald, Fayetteville Observer, and at the funeral home, Fry and Prickett.

Here are the links so you can verify:
