Eulogy

          Carlina started a great life on May 15, 1994. She was only 6 pounds. Who knew that something so little could someday become someone so great? From the beginning, she was a quiet child. She was obedient and did not tend to make scenes. Her parents loved her from the start.


         As Carlina grow up, she aspired to be something big. Even though she wasn't sure what exactly this big thing was, she was determined to be someone in the world. She loved her parents very dearly, knowing that they were the reason she had such big goals in life.

        During her teen years, she became very interested in supporting the cause of animal rights. She felt that she had to voice the rights for the poor animals who could not. She would go on to become a vegetarian for almost a year and was a regular volunteer in PAWS which is a no kill shelter along with her mom. She also became a regular volunteer at the RUSH hospital which was by her high school, trying to help navigate people around the hospital and meet their needs.

         Carlina was able to do many amazing things throughout her life. She went on to become an avid advocate of animal rights and environmental issues such as the overwhelming pollution and waste. She always had a book in hand to read, always wanting to know more and learn more every second she had. She will always be remembered as a passionate and devoted woman who tried to leave an impact on the world.
