Tamarac
Carmen Montero, born on July 3, 1951, in Bogota, Colombia to Graciela and Jesus Amaya, passed away on April 29, 2023. After studying accounting at the University of La Salle, Carmen decided to marry her soulmate, Fernando Montero, and move to New York in search of better opportunities. Together, they raised their children Ivan Herrera, Lisette, and Jose Montero, and were happily married for 42 years. Carmen was a wonderful cook, had a strong personality, was loving, and had a creative mind. She enjoyed spending her free time shopping, traveling, making art, and teaching classes at a retirement facility in New York. During the holidays, Carmen loved hosting family and friends for parties. When Fernando retired, they moved to Florida to be closer to their grandkids, whom she adored. Carmen had a deep love for her family and will be missed by all who knew her. Special thanks to Carmen Yunda, her sister-in-law, and nieces Johanna and Michelle Yunda for their support.
