  1. Our beautiful Mother’s left this earth for heaven the very same week! I share your grief at the lost of your Mom, Grandma and Great Grandma! We were blessed to have them as long as we did – but it was definitely not long enough. Aunt Carrie was an inspiration to me – her example lead me to become a Registered Nurse! Her love and compassion for her family and patients was clearly evident in all she did! We will all miss her! I pray that your happy memories will replace your grief! With love and prayers for all those who knew and Loved her – especially her children, their spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren! ??????

  2. I was fortunate to meet this woman 44 years ago. Her kindness, intelligence and love inspired me to be better. She was always open to help and advise. Love you Carrrie O.

  3. To my cousins and family of Auntie Carrie- it saddens our hearts to lose such a caring, giving, and wonderful lady. Even though we know she will live on in our hearts, is no longer in pain, and visiting with the many people she missed and loved, our grief is inevitable. I pray that the many special memories will continue to brighten our days—love, hugs, and thoughts of each of you at this trying time.

  4. Prayers of peace for the entire Ozzello family. I hope that the memory of your mother, her Spirit & energy will uplift you in the midst of grieving. Blessings of healing your hearts be upon you.

  5. I am the niece of Carolyn and I want to send my condolences to all of my cousins and their spouses and children. Carolyn was a wonderful person and I know her family will miss her deeply. Because of the distance we live from her family, her family from Michigan and Wisconsin will not be able to attend, but please let the family know that our thoughts and prayers are with them during this difficult time. May God’s peace be with them all.
