Cara Arsenault Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born on August 9, 1975, Cara was the beloved daughter of Betty (Dodson) Kuzis and the late Ernest Arsenault. She was a vibrant and joyful soul who embraced life with warmth, humor, and a strong love for her family and friends.
Cara found happiness in life's simple pleasures-roller skating, tubing, swimming, and enjoying her self-declared "Summer Olympics." She especially cherished her time working at Bethany Blues in Lewes, DE, where she took pride in serving her customers with warmth and enthusiasm. Her work there brought her joy and connection, and she formed many lasting friendships with both coworkers and guests. Her laughter, energy, and generous spirit made a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
She is survived by her two beloved children, Hunter and Fischer; her longtime companion, Dave Dormanen; her mother, Betty Kuzis, her stepfather, Charles Kuzis; along with extended members of the Kuzis family.; and her brothers, Corin Arsenault (wife Nancy) and Kevin Arsenault (partner Kim). Cara also leaves behind many cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and cherished friends who will forever hold her in their hearts.
She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all whose lives she touched.

VERY SAD! I just heard about Cara's passing from my brother in Myrtle Beach. I had Cara hired by him at Grand Dunes Golf Course and then Myrtle Beach National when she had moved there many years ago. We lost contact in 2015 but I will never forget about all the great times we had growing up in NJ, Hopping Bars, Concerts, Parties, Beer Balls and All. You were a genuine soul and will truly be missed by all. My condolences go out to Kevin, Dave, Family, Children, and Friends! Rest in Peace Girl and we'll do it all over again when I get there...

I have not seen or spoken to Cara in years but one thing I remember is her contagious smile. I know she loved cats so I donation was made in her memory to the Humane animal partners of Rehoboth Beach to help a few fur babies find their forever home

Cara lived next door to me in Carolina Forest. She lit up a room when she walked in. My deepest sympathies to Dave, Hunter, Fisher, and her family and friends.

Cara was our neighbor in Myrtle Beach.....we were her next door neighbors when she was pregnant with Hunter . Dave can attest to the great parties we had in our patios.....
After Hunter was born I babysat for her when she and Dave went bowling. Just a wonderful, warm neighbor....I remember playing family games on Christmas Day, sharing food and good times. She was a delight......
Scared of birds though....
She'll be missed.....
