  9. Sarah Leefe Ackerman

    I was so saddened to hear of Carla’s passing. I know losing Gaven and dealing with her health issues had made the last few years very difficult for her, but she continued on despite those challenges. I know her family meant everything to her and helped sustain and comfort her. She certainly loved Muffy who brought her so much joy. It is so hard to lose the people we love. I hope you will all find comfort in your many memories of Carla and in your family and friends and this most difficult time.

    To Carla’s family , Carla will remain in my memory as a truly good person with an uplifting presence that could be felt whenever she was near. My days with her at Peoples are cherished as a time when her friendship meant a lot and a time when she struggled with the news of being diagnosed with diabetes. She met every challenge with bravery and still went on to do so much for others in her life.A true example for others, her spirit is surely flying ,free of earthly burdens now.Gone but not forgotten. Much love to the family and friends mourning her loss.

    I’m saddened to hear of Carla’s passing. My first memory of Carla was a performance she did for Queens County Blades. It was a beautiful routine to Last Kiss.

I wanted so much to be able to skate like her. My deepest condolences to her family.
