I heard Carmen sing at Assumption Church and spent some time with her as she painted so many pictures for me of my family. She was a delightful lady and I will always remember her, Ron, sold me my sewing machine in 1972 and I still use it regularly, my prayers are with the family. Charlotte Hale

She could paint anything from a simple photograph. She did a painting of my mom that still hangs in her living room. A very sweet woman!

I sang in the choir at Assumption with carmen for many years. She painted a portrait of me when I was in my teens and we were friends. Ron fixed my sewing machine from time to time. They were both such lovely people. You had wonderful parents.
