Family members remember Carrie for her sense of humor, her laugh, and her ability to make plays on words, her surprising wit, and ability to play Trivial Pursuit. She loved to sing, dance, and make others happy. Her family will fondly remember “Carrie-isms,” for years to come. Born on Easter Sunday, her mother called Carrie, “My Easter Angel.”

Carrie’s family would like to thank the staff at the various group homes, most recently Debra’s House in Harrisburg, where she resided and received loving care.
