children for you, especially Maria. Thank you for giving our brother, and brother-in-law, Johnny, your beautiful rainbow while he was in Kosovo during your funeral. We all told him that this was your way of telling him that it was O.K. to say goodbye to you from Kosovo, while the rest of us were there with you, and that this was your way of letting him know how proud you are of him for serving our Country. You will truly be missed.All of our love, Carol, Ron, Nick, Augie, Smokey, your Mom, Sister, Brother, Cousins, Brothers and Sister-in-Laws, Friends, Sister Mary Lou Cassidy, your friends from Saint Patrick's Parish in Stoneham, and everyone that you loved. May you rest in peace and continue smiling upon all of us -- as you always have. Our sincerest love to you. P.S.: You would be so proud of Mike and the Kids. They are so strong, and it is all because of you! A SPECIAL THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING
Augie Doggie (Just Because! Who loves you the most Buddy?)

You guys are great! Thank you and much love. Carol Most Importantly...... CONGRATULATIONS BOSTON RED SOX 2007 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!!! THE 2008 SEASON HAS BEGUN!!! GO BOSTON RED SOX!!! IMPORTANT NOTE: All kidding aside from your knowing my whole life story, knowing that I am a HUGE Boston Red Sox fan, and meeting my family, my husband said to me "Carol, people are going to think that you are a nut when they see this web page." My answer to him was that I want couples to feel comfortable with me. I want them to know the person who is officiating over their ceremony. What you see on my website is my personality. I consider myself to be fun and a very caring person. I love what I do! Too many times I have seen couples get themselves so stressed out over planning their wedding day -- and my goal is to let them know that there is no need for them to get stressed out. On your special day, your wedding coordinator, officiant, DJ, Photographer, etc. always get together before your ceremony to make sure that we are all on the same page so that you both can relax. That is what you are paying us to do. It is "our job" to make sure that your most precious day of your life goes as you planned. We, as professionals, know this and that is why we are there. |

| WITH MY FAVORITE FENWAY WAITER -- SEAN |



| Boston Red Sox Fenway Park Wedding 9/30/2007 My long awaited dream to officiate a wedding at Fenway Park finally came true during the last game of the Regular 2007 Season against the Minnesota Twins. It took place during the Seventh-Inning Stretch on the Green Monster. Despite a 3-2 loss, it didn't matter. What mattered was that I was able to fulfill a dream for this loving couple, Annette & Larry Rine, from Scanectaty, New York. |





With my favorite person to attend Red Sox games with -- MY MOM!!! Bernice Person Abbott. Mom's 85th Birthday present -- a message on the Fenway Screen -- and on the same day that I performed my first Red Sox wedding. It was awesome to have Mom be there to witness my dream! September 30, 2007 |
With my colleague, Lizette Figueiredo, hosting our firm's "World Series" Luncheon October 30, 2007 |
| With my hubby of 21 years -- Ron. NOTE: He won't admit it, but it was "I" who converted him into a baseball fan.! (He is truly a football / Patriots Fan) but does indeed love our SOX!!! |
| A Heart Warming Ceremony 12/29/2007 The one ceremony that I will always hold dear to my heart, is the ceremony of Serge and Nicole Carrier. The Carrier's were united as a couple on December 29, 2007 at Tufts New England Medical Center in Boston. The couple, who have been together for ten years, got engaged in the Fall of 2007, and set their wedding date for December 29th. Two weeks later, Serge suffered a severe heart attack on the day that his future bride, Nicole, went out with her sister to pick up her wedding dress. Upon arriving home, Nicole found Serge gravely ill. Once at the hospital, they learned that Serge had been stricken with a heart attack and stroke beyond repair. While Serge is able to speak, he is paralyzed on one side and partially paralyzed on the other side, and is being kept alive with an artificial heart, while he waits, and prays, for a heart transplant. However, this did not stop Serge from wanting his wish for a December 29th wedding. Nicole and Serge were determined to go forward with their plan to marry, and to have their wedding in December. Doctors told Serge that he could not leave the hospital to fulfill his wish; therefore, they gave Nicole and Serge permission to bring their wedding to them, at the hospital, with their guests and all. I was fortunate enough to be chosen as the officiant to conduct Nicole and Serge’s ceremony, and I was not only honored, but I truly believe that I was given an opportunity to give a gift to two very special people. It was also a gift given to me for being asked to be the one to marry them, and to make their dream come true. Serge was determined to keep the original date that was planned for his wedding. He said that he wanted a ring on his finger in the event that he did not make it into the New Year. That was emotionally tough for me to hear. While I held up during the ceremony, I confess to getting a bit teary eyed when Nicole placed the ring on Serge's finger! Having said that, I hope that every one who reads this Webpage will keep Nicole and Serge in your thoughts. Thank you.
