Carol touched the lives of so many people in the world, including the Arsenault family. In 1997, when we moved to Wellington to undertake our varsity studies, Carol became a close friend and she and Robert both welcomed us in their family. A few years later, we asked Robert and Carol to be the godparents of our first son, José (Chechito). We treasure all the fond memories we shared with Carol and Robert in New Zealand, Canada and Guatemala. Carol will be remembered forever in our hearts for her unique sense of humour but above all her humanity, sound "motherly advice" and caring for others. Our thoughts and prayers go to Robert, their four wonderful daughters and grandchildren. All our love, from Ottawa. Daniel, Karina, Chechito and Diego
