Carlene had many she called her own, whether blood related or not. If she loved you, you knew it and you had better give her a hug!
She lived life to the fullest, loving life and making memories. She enjoyed shopping! She loved fishing, planting and growing plants and various flowers, Mandeville flowering vine was one of her favorites.
Let’s not leave out football! But more than all of that, she loved her family.
