Carmel A. Warner, 85, North Haven

Carmel A. Warner, 85, of North Haven, died on April 12 at the Mary Wade Home in New Haven.  Carmel was born in New Haven on Nov. 30, 1927, daughter of the late Pasquale and Philomena Cremese Warner. She was a 1946 graduate of the former St. Mary’s High School and obtained a bachelor’s degree from the former Larson’s College (now Quinnipiac University). Carmel had worked for the West Haven Veterans Hospital for a short period of time and later as a manager for the Social Security Administration in various offices throughout the state for many years until her retirement. 

Carmel was a former Girl Scout Leader at an orphanage in New Haven. She was also a dance instructor for the former Michael Mando’s Dance School; a member of the North Haven Senior Center and the Quinnipiac College Alumni; and she was a parishioner of St. Frances Cabrini Church and a member of its Women’s Club.  In addition, Carmel enjoyed riding horses, traveling throughout the U.S. and abroad, and she was a devoted fan of the late Frank Sinatra. Most of all, Carmel was a loving, giving, and caring person, always there to help unconditionally. She will truly be missed. 

She is survived by her brother, Donald Warner, Sr. and his wife Martha of Northford, and by many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, great-great-nieces, and great-great-nephews. She was predeceased by her sister Mary Ann and by two brothers, Joseph Warner and Pasquale Warner, Jr.
