I am so sorry to hear of Miss Carmen’s passing. She resided with my mother at Brookside and I always stopped to say hello while visiting my mother…I will miss seeing her and she always had a smile and kind word. Prayers for all the family during this difficult time and know she is with her sweet husband now.
