Support Carmen's Burial: Fulfill Her Final Wish

Carmen Navarro Pastrana is our Grandmother (Abuela Carmen and Doña Carmen to many.) She is 98 years old. She is in hospice anticipated through next week if that. Her last wishes are to have a burial. In making arrangements, the costs are beyond what was anticipated. However, we do not have the heart to deny her wishes. She was the kindest soul. She loved to joke around and always tried to help her family, friends, and neighbors however she could in Puerto Rico and in her hometown of Chelsea, MA. In her presence, you could not walk away without a big smile. That is how infectious her positive attitude and character was. She lived a very humble life. She raised 5 children as a single parent. She did not set aside life insurance or other funds to pay for her arrangements.

We are asking friends, family, neighbors and the community to assist in helping us to fulfill her wish if you could. Thank you so much! Funeral arrangement information to come once we have them available.
