My dearest Carmen – I’m so sorry we didn’t get to connect on the tele. I have no doubt we would have picked up where we left off those many years ago back in Yellowknife. I will miss you my friend. My heartfelt love and thoughts to Byron and family – may you find peace in all the good memories you shared with Carmen.

Dear Carmen even though we just reconnected last year and chatted some I will always have you on my heart. As school chums and hanging with the girls memories of good times will always be with me! Your light will always shine in us all!
Love and will miss you
