Carma Jean Pimento, 50, of Ferndale, went to be with her Lord and Savior in heaven on Saturday, March 23, 2019.
Carma was everything to her family. The loving wife of 25 years to Ken Pimento, she was his friend, his everything; the most amazing and caring mother to Sarah, Anna and Micaela Pimento; devoted daughter of Jeannie Bargen; delightful daughter-in-law to Tony and Muriel Pimento; big sister to David (Ulrike) Byle and Warren (Julie) Byle; awesome aunt to her nieces and nephews, and cheerful helper to her extended family and friends.
She was preceded in death by her father, Bill Byle; mother-in-law, Joan Pimento; and step-father, John Bargen.
Carma was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and her family moved to Ferndale in 1977. She attended Meridian High School and graduated from Biola University. She married Ken in 1993 and raised their three daughters in her childhood home on Northwest Road. Carma’s creativity and generosity touched countless people; her sudden passing will deeply affect us all.
A public visitation and open house will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Sunday, March 31, in Gillies Funeral Home. All other services will be private family.
Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Gillies Funeral Home in Lynden.
