Carmen Guadalupe-Díaz

Carmen Guadalupe-Díaz, 81, passed away on November 5, 2024, in Atlanta, GA. She was born on May 7, 1943, in Puerto Rico, to Sixto Guadalupe Cuyar and Isabele Ocasio Ramirez.

She was an avid homemaker. Her children remember her cleaning after they had cleaned. She was one where everything had its place and had to be put back. She was a amazing cook and loved to crochet. Over the years, she cared for kids who lovingly referred to her as "Mami D". While under her care, she spoke Spanish which frequently created confusion as the parents were unable to understand their own children. She cared for them as if they were her own.

Carmen is survived by her children; Annette Díaz-Guadalupe, of Atlanta, Dharma Díaz-Azcuy, of Decatur, and David Díaz-Guadalupe, of McDonough, her granddaughter; Katarina Díaz, by her brothers Victor Guadalupe Ocasio, Alfonso Guadalupe Ocasio, Fernando Guadalupe Ocasio. As well as 3 nieces and 3 nephews.

She is preceded in death by her husband; Ruben Díaz O'ben, her parents; Sixto Guadalupe Cuyar and Isabele Ocasio Ramirez, her brother Eduardo Guadalupe Ocasio.
