Carlota Ryan

Carlota Ryan was a woman of wonderful faith. Perhaps at times like Mother Teresa - she was not always aware of how strong her faith was - and how much of an impact she had upon others.

Her funeral is tomorrow - Friday, August 8th at 10:00 and there will be a time of visitation this evening Egan Funeral Home from 6:00 to 9:00 pm with prayers at 6:15 pm this evening. 

Carlota struggled these last few years with Cancer and we usually speak of Cancer as limiting a person - but for Carlota it was the Cancer that was so limited!


CANCER IS SO LIMITED …
It cannot cripple LOVE
It cannot shatter HOPE
It cannot corrode FAITH
It cannot eat away PEACE
It cannot destroy CONFIDENCE
It cannot kill FRIENDSHIP
It cannot shut out MEMORIES
It cannot silence COURAGE
It cannot invade the SOUL
It cannot reduce ETERNAL LIFE
It cannot quench the SPIRIT
It cannot lessen the POWER OF THE RESURRECTION 
CANCER IS SO VERY LIMITED!

  1. After mass, I was approached by a woman who had never met Carlota or myself. She said that she was not going to mass regularly, but that her son recently had his first communion. She noticed Carlota going to mass regularly even though she was struggling and walking with a walker. The woman realized that she had no excuse not to go to mass. She has started to go to mass regularly again because of Carlota. Carlota has indeed had an impact on others.
