Having spent most of her life in Washington State, Carmen enjoyed 63 wonderful years of marriage to her late husband Charlie Smith Cantrell. Carmen was an illustrious chef and pie-maker, who loved generously, adored elegant fashion, and was unafraid to inspire laughter with her extraordinary humor and sharp wit. She was a master gardener with exceptional nail beds and 20/20 vision, who dreamed of being a moll while moonlighting as a high-class escort. Preceded in death by her mother Ruby Bell Lipsett (Horspool) and her father Lewis Sturgeon. She is survived by her three children: La Lonnie Heapy of Bishop, CA, Dr. Bridget Cantrell of Bellingham, WA, Charlie Cantrell of Bellingham, WA, three grandchildren, and four great grandchildren.

My deepest sympathy to Carmen’s family and friends. May you find comfort and hope in the promise recorded for us at Revelation 21:4 where it says “And he will wipeout every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away”. All the best wishes for your family at this difficult time. I am truly sorry for your loss.
