I don't think we've ever met. Even though we lived a street apart. I think of you often, every time I'm at the intersection. My heart goes out to your family and friends. Rest in Peace.

I worked with Carrie at Rush North Shore. It grieves me to hear of this sad loss. She was a meticulous and knowledgeable ICU nurse. Truly she will be missed.

Carrie and I were friends in high school. Carrie was a gregarious, fearless and fun person. Even at a young age, she had ambitions and went after them. I'm glad that she achieved her dreams to be an ICU nurse and a mom. I am sorry I lost touch with Carrie. Her spirit was infectious and it is such a tremendous loss. My thoughts and prayers are with her family today and will continue to be with you all.

I had the pleasure of meeting Carrie when I briefly worked at St. Joe's. She was an exceptional nurse that showed great caring and compassion for her patients. Her smile lit up the room. I don't understand and probably never will, why such a wonderful person was taken from this earth and away from her children and husband so early, but I leave it to God and know that she is safe and she is looking down on everyone and keeping them safe. My heart breaks for you and your family. May God bring you the strength to carry on and may you find some comfort at this most trying time. In her 43 years of life she has touched so many lives and that is truly amazing. My deepest sympathies.

To the family of Carolyn, I am very sorry for your loss. I did not know Carolyn either, but like many, have been consumed by the tradegy. I live in the neighborhood and think of her every time I am at the intersection. I pray you have the strength to get thru each day. Your children will help you with that by putting a smile on your face when you least expect it. God be with you...

Carrie was a great person all around... She was a Mother, Wife, Daughter, Nurse, Friend, and more. She had one of the biggest hearts. I hope her children; Veronica, Georgie, and Gianna remember how funny and loving she was. She talked about her kids all the time and doing so brought a smile to all of us. Carrie, I will miss you so very much and remember you always.

This is truely a great loss to all of us who knew her, all those she took exceptional care of, both family and her pt's. I worked in the unit next to hers for six years before we moved to the new tower of the hospital. We had a conjoined hall between the units where we got our coffe and sent things to different departments. This hall and occasionally working in SICU with Carrie is where our paths mostly crossed. Carrie was a strong person and a strong nurse and someone I wish I had the strength to be. For Carries family amd friends, we may never meet, but know you are in my heart. I feel my duty is to work on the very unit she was so dedicated to during the 3 days of services so those who were closest to her can be where they need to be, with you. My deepest condolences

I, like so many others, never had the chance to meet Carrie. Even though we have never met, the news of what had happened to her and her family was so devastating to me. I cried for her, her children and her husband for so many days. It just made me think about certain things like my 2 year old and unborn child. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Carrie, and your family and friends in this time of sorrow.

I will miss your smile, your funny sense of humor and our long talks sitting at the pods. Your smile lit up your face Carrie. I loved talking to you about your children, just to see that smile and your eyes sparkle! May the Lord comfort and bless all those you left behind, our hearts full of sorrow. I pray for special blessings and comfort to your husband, George, and your beautiful children, Veronica, George and Gianna. I pray they will always remember how much you loved and adored them!

We will never understand why the Good Lord took Carrie from her family. We should not pray for understanding. We can only pray for a strong faith and  that their faith in His goodness remains strong.  What is clear is that He wanted these 3 beautiful children  to be nurtured and raised by their father. May that thought strengthen your faith, George.  Know that Carrie is helping you along the way.  Be open to her whispers.

this goes out to the moore family and to George. Carrie was a great cousin and a wonderful mother to her 3 kids and had loving husband and i know that George will do a wonderful job at being a single parent. What can i say about my cousin Carrie but came from a wonderful family and was always fun to be around and she had a smile that would make you go blind and she is also know for her hard work at home and on the job. She would make me laugh at the things she does and she always had a kind heart. I love you and i miss you as well. I know you will be watching down on all of us. To my Aunt Barb and my Uncle Dan I am sorry for your lost i will never for get her i love you both as well

To Carries husband and her 3 beautiful children:
I am so sorry for the loss of your wife and mother. It breaks my heart that Carrie is not here to watch her babies grow up, to grow old with her husband, to live life! I pray that god gives you the strength to get through this extremely difficult time. 
This world lost an exceptional mother, wife and nurse. Nothing will be the same without her and she will be missed immensely.
