We loved knowing Carmen and will miss her. We will always remember her kindness, her spirituality and her humor. Her spirit inspired us. We will forever remember our moments working on puzzles with her. Her smile was infectious and her words and touch - heartfelt. We wish we could be with you now - your family is in our hearts and prayers during this sad time. We thank you and love you for sharing her with us.
