Carla was a sassy, feisty kind hearted beautiful soul. Her sense of humor knew no boundaries such as hiding a rubber snake inside your toilet. You never knew when the prank was gonna get you, but you had to be prepared because she was very witty about it.

Carla had a deep love of animals as she had many cats throughout her life. She was very passionate about adopting pets who were abandoned and routinely donated to the humane society. “Adopt don’t shop”

Carla loved playing cards, especially Gin Rummy. She loved going to bingo, and not only did she play her own cards, by the middle of the evening she would end up playing 15 cards because because anyone she brought with could not keep up with her dabbing skills.

Carla was a loving mother and grandmother and will be missed beyond comprehension. To all of Mom’s friends, she loved and cherished you all. We thank everyone for the love and support and know that our mother lead a full beautiful life and left this world with her daughter’s by her side.
