Violet Anna Carey was born
November 29th, 1996. Her baby sister Iris Mary was born June 30th, 1998.
Both of our precious daughters died together in a gas explosion as they
slept in the same bed. We were sleeping in another bed right beside them. Here is the collection of articles we have covering our
story. Newer articles will be found toward the bottom
