Carrie was a pet lover, loved music and loved going to Michigan as much as possible and had a passion for cooking. She had a great sense of humor and put everyone in front of her. She had a kind and compassionate spirit about her that was contagious. Her favorite holiday was Christmas, for the birth of Jesus Christ and the whole spirit of the holiday. Of course, she decorated every room of the house. She loved getting together with her families and friends.
