Carmen (Dionne) Caron, 91, of Bristol, widow of Gerard Caron, died on Sunday (February 1, 2026) at home.

Carmen was born on August 10, 1934, in Notre Dame de Lourdes, New Brunswick, Canada and was a daughter of the late Eddie and Helene (Violette) Dionne.

She was raised in Notre Dame de Lourdes before immigrating to the United States, settling in Bristol in 1954.

Carmen worked briefly at Metallics Inc. and then went to work as an assembler for General Electric for 26 years from where she retired in 1994. She was a parishioner of St. Francis de Sales Parish devoted to St. Ann Church.

Carmen enjoyed going to the casino, playing Bingo and cards, reading, and word searches. She loved to sing and snack on her favorite candy, Caramel Rolos. More than anything, she cherished the time she spent with her family, whom she loved dearly.
