Auntie Carmen, we love you very much and we have many fond memories of spending time together since the beginning of our lives, including the bright red lipstick kisses you gave us on our cheeks!!! Thanks for sharing your heart, your joys, your sadness, your faith, your favourite evening comedy TV shows, your interest in our family heritage, your supernatural experiences (especially when you were preparing to meet your Maker and to continue your spiritual journey in heavenly places). The courage you demonstrated while facing the end of your physical life was an inspiration to all of us. We were encouraged by your desire to resolve any unfinished business through love and forgiveness. And the excitement you expressed when you said you were really looking forward to meeting up with family and friends who previously passed away was refreshing and life-giving. Together we celebrate your life, we will provide ongoing support for your family, and we say: "See you later!" - Posted by: Lois Lorretta Tetrault and Family (Niece) on: Dec 01, 2014

So sorry for your loss. Carmen was a great woman. I am so glad I got to know her when I was younger, hanging out with Paul. Paul she really did think of you as a son. I am so sorry for your loss.

To my dearest aunty Carmen, started to get to know my aunty by coming for school summer holidays, summer job WEEDING THE GARDEN, lots of fun. I wasn't alone, my cousins from Thompson (Charmaine & Claudette) would also come out, we would look forward to going uptown as we would take turns shifting gears for aunty (yellow Vega aka roadrunner). When I decide to make their home, my home Aunty Carmen was on my side to convince Uncle Martin. 30 years later I still call their home my home. Aunty was my greatest Fan in any sports I played. Also Aunty & I enjoyed watching movies together with some popcorn on the side of course. I will miss her very much. Rest In Peace, My favorite Aunty. PS I WILL KEEP YOUR Recliner warm for you. LOVE YOU VERY MUCH. - Posted by: PAUL OWENS (Nephew AKA : Second son ) on: Nov 26, 2014

Fond memories of when Carmen and myself played softball for the Lac du Bonnet Women's team. No matter if we were losing the game, Carmen always made sure that we had a fun time doing so. So many laughs were had by all. Carmen always kept everyone in stitches. But when it was time to put our heads into the game, she would always be on our cases. She will be sorely missed. Keep throwing those strikes Carmen.... - Posted by: Rita Baumeister ( Droux ) (Friend and fellow ball teammate) on: Nov 24, 2014
