Carmen Medina, born on June 17, 1931, was one of nine children born to Jesus and Dolores Medina. Carmen was born in Gary, Indiana, and during her early childhood moved to Guanajuato, Mexico with her brothers and sisters to live w Read Obituary
I knew Carmen for my whole life. Espie was a nanny, a second mom to me and when we moved, leaving them was one of the most painful parts. Carmen would ALWAYS push me in speaking Spanish. When I became a mom, going to their home to introduce my son to them was the most important part for me. I’m forever grateful for the love that Carmen showed me. Te amo. Te amo.
I was saddened to read of Carmen’s passing but rejoice for her homecoming. I always went to see her and Espie when I went back to Texas. Tell Espie I still think about her and wish I were there to help take care of her like she did for me so many years. The Medina family is very special to me. Tell Espie, mi amiga, I love her.
Carmen was truly a Woman of Faith! Her love and kindness was a mirror of God's goodness and amazing love. She was a Sunday school teacher to many of us and as we grew older, a great source of encouragement. She touched many lives and will always be remembered as a beautiful role model to all of us! â ¤ï¸â ¤ï¸â ¤ï¸
Carmelita had a youthful heart! Always smiling and always providing words of encouragement. I will always cherish her tireless efforts to help us, Familia Olivo, with our youth events and rallies - always being at church along with the rest of the Herman's at La Santisima Methodist church. Thank you. Even till her last ability to drive, made an effort to visit my mother who has been sick, again providing words of encouragement. She will be missed greatly but we will see her soon and we will join her in giving praise to our King!
Carmencita is now rejoicing in our Lord’s presence! She was a “good and faithful servant†of God. My fond memories of her go way back to the mid 1960’s as my Sunday School Teacher. She served in many capacities at La Santisima throughout the years, never seeking prestige or recognition. She was a precious friend to my beloved Mother Lilia Tamez, which then extended to all of us girls… Elizabeth, Imelda & I (Norma). Every time I visited from out of town, she welcomed me at church with a genuine smile & hug. Plus, she was always praying for me. The picture I shared are Carmencita & Lilia (my Mom) walking into church. That was another huge ministry of hers. She always gave my Mom a ride to church. This occurred for decades, I remember riding in her car as a child. I will greatly miss her. As a believer, I know she’s in heaven singing heavenly praises!
