worked in the family business, the Buck Hotel, for many years. Carmen and her family then moved to

loved to travel and particularly to spend time with friends and family in Avalon, NJ. Known as “Grandy”
to her grandchildren and many friends, Carmen leaves behind with many funny and beautiful memories.
