Sincere condolences to all of the family. May her soul rest at peace.
Cousin Carmella, although never kept in touch, you are a very kind soul. 💕 Talked on the school bus so many years ago. Crossing paths every now and then, talked with a quick catch up. You may rest easy now.

Sending deepest sympathy to James, Alana, and Olivia. Carmella was truly kind and so much fun. We met at Pioneer School in 1995. She was so sweet to me and I’ll never forget it. I pray you will all find comfort and strength from loving friends and family and from our God, Jehovah, who will never forget her or her loved ones either.
