Dear Michael,
May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Sorry for your loss.

I have known Carmel for over 26 years. She was the sweetest, loving and interesting person I had the joy to meet. Always had words of encouragement and only saw the good in everyone. Carmel you will be missed.

Roy, Michael and family, Wishing you peace and comfort in this time of loss. Please know that you're in my thoughts and prayers.

What a sweet and loving lady. My partner and I had the pleasure of being her neighbor for 5 short years and she always greeted us with smiles and hugs.

My condolences to the family. I am very sorry for your loss. May you receive strength and peace from God. Romans 15:13
