Carla met her wonderful husband, Jack during this time. They married on October 5th, 1974 and Carla moved to Mount Vernon, where she developed many lifelong friends.
She participated in a French Club, enjoying the company of other fluent speakers. She was active in her parish, Immaculate Conception. She extended a welcome smile and friendly conversation to all she met. Carla was very concerned about others all her life.
