Carmen Cortijo

A mother´s love is never forgotten and she will know this when we see her again in paradise! That is what Jehovah promises.

I met Carmen when I was just a teenager and immediately she embrome like one of her sons. I regret losing touch over these many years. I just happened to be in NYC and was thinking about her and tried to look her and Becky up to see where they were living and came across this. I look forward to see her again in the New World. I will promise to be more diligent about keeping in contact with my adopted mom.

We are sorry for your loss and look forward to seeing her in the new world with open arms. Can´t wait to try her cooking! Many hugs, Phil and Rocky

God is good and Carmen Cortijo is one of His favorites, as she is one of our´s! Bless her memory! Our...

It was my honor to have known Sister Carmen Cortijo and hope she will meet and teach my mother in Paradise!

Sending my love and condolences to the entire Cortijo family especially my Uncle Edwin and cousins Adriane & Elliott. Sleep in peace Mamita

We will wait till Jesus calls her, and be ready to greet, embrace her and enjoy a paradise earth together.
