My condolences and prayers are with the family. Carmen,  thank you for  the years of friendship since HHS. I know how you loved your family and friends. You classmates of ‘78 will never forget you. May you be at peace with so many beautiful angels welcoming you. In my heart always.🙏

Family of Carmen:
I am so deeply sorry that we have lost a wonderful friend.  I worked with her at GTED's and she was just so sweet and funny.  I did speak with her about 6 months ago and she was so kind and loved that I called her.  Many prayers for you and hoping your loss will be filled with loving memories.

My dear sweet cousin, my heart broke in pieces when Judy called me to tell me you had passed. The moment she was able to tell me through her tears, my breath caught in my chest and the pain in my heart was instant. You brought such sunshine and happiness when you were born. Your parents were so happy as we all were. All that beautiful red hair and chubby cheeks (which we had in common) was you trade mark. I loved your smile and you were always happy. I will miss your post on Facebook and I could see your post on family that kept me informed. Sweetheart you have left a big hole in our hearts and will always be missed. But we take comfort knowing we will celebrate in a joyous reunion with you and our parents and other family and friends. Girl! Dance on those streets of Gold and sing Praises to the Lord. God Bless and comfort family and friends.

Sending prayers of condolence to Steve and the Stegner family, as well as Judy Bell and Tal Almand. I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Carmen's passing.  Although we had lost touch over the years, we still ribbed each other during football season.  She is as true a Crimson Tide fan as I am a Gator fan.  She will eternally have a primo front row seat to all the games. Cheer on Sister Carmen.. and one last time ROLL TIDE ROLL

Sorry to hear about Carmen. Prayers to the family. RIP

I have known Carmen since High school. She was the sweetest person and so funny. I will miss her Roll Tide on Facebook. She really loved that team. I am still in shock and will miss her so much. My condolences to her family and friends. She is with the Angels now.

Prayers and condolences to Carmen's loved ones and friends.  She was one of a kind!  Always smiling and enjoying life. What sticks in my mind is she could cook anything!  I called her a couple times to ask advice and she always knew the answer!  She will be greatly missed!  Loved her adventures she recounted on FB.  Much too young to go but I guess God had other plans for her.  One day we will see her again.  Until then, my dear friend Rest In Peace...you earned your wings!

I’m so sorry to hear about Carmen and my condolences to all her family. 
Carmen was my next door neighbor in Tampa on Robson Street for my entire childhood and my brother Sam was in her class. We have 17 years of childhood memories and I will remember her and her family fondly. Thanks for sharing a fence with us! 💕

To Carmen’s husband Steve and her family and our c/o 78 family.  I am so sorry to hear about this passing of our dear friend Carmen.  She will be greatly missed, and forever remembered…. Her and her red hair… we can never forget redheads.  Looking for friends in the stands at HHS I could always find them by her red hair.  She was a good friend to all her friends who knew her, and always willing to give a helping hand if you needed it.  I will forever remember her and all the get togethers with her and other c/o 78 classmates.  She even picked me up for one when my daughter was using my car.  Rest in peace our dear friend and life long Terrier until we meet again.  🙏✝️👼 🐾❤️🖤
