Nina was an awesome person and I enjoyed long talks with her. We talked about everything, our daughters, our health and Food! We both loved to talk about food! She will be so greatly missed! I miss her already.

Carmelina was the most positive person I have ever known. She was so brave, kind and giving. I didn't know her long, but she always had a great sense of humor, even the last time I saw her at Willow Creek. She will always be an inspiration to me and I will miss her sweetness as I know everyone that knew her will.

It was at the State of Ca Disability Office where I met and worked with Carmelina. She gladly helped me with a few things I could not do. I also met Jojo, her husband, and her daughter Jill - a lovely, lovely child. To both of them I want to extend my sympathy. I truly miss her -- her sincerity that made her a true friend to me and to many others. I wish Carmelina the peace and joys of eternal life.
