J'Cil and J'Nil,
Our mother Ruth J. Carnes and father Hubert M. Carnes much loved Lucille and John. Some of our parents' best memories of them were spending time together in the ranching countryside.
May God's grace and the memories you hold in your hearts bring healing and peace to your souls.
Our love

I'm so blessed to have known Aunt Lucile and Uncle Johnny. People don't always get to meet and enjoy the company of great aunts and uncles. These two were special and always will be. Love to J'Cil and J'Nil and their families. Love from Karen, husband Chris, and kids Ben, Sarah, and Mack.
