Carmen was so nice and friendly. I looked forward to seeing her any time I came into the office at Goodfellow Occupational Therapy. She was very encouraging. Always smiling. A beautiful woman inside and out. I will always hold her in my heart. I hope her family can be at peace knowing she is with our Lord, and free of any pain or suffering.

Nina, There's just no words to say, My heart hurts but I know your in a better place. For years I searched for you and I believe God brought us together for a reason and I am so blessed I was given that opportunity. I will forever cherish the last few times we got to spend together and until we see each other again you'll forever be in my heart. <3
