Carmen Deborah Crisp was born October 16, 1992, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She passed from this life October 1, 2011, at the Shands Cancer Center, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida; just 15 days shy of her 19th birthday.
Carmen attended schools in Florida as well as Oklahoma Union in Nowata County. There she was active in the FFA, and made the cheer team, but moved back to Florida before the next school year. She was also a member of the Nowata Round up Club, and the National Paint Horse Association. Carmen loved training and riding horses. She was very faithful in feeding the horses and cattle every day before going to school. She is described as a beautiful lady with a touch of tomboy. Her sense of humor was second to none. She loved to laugh and joke with her dad and others. In her spare time she enjoyed reading. Her favorite book was the Scarlet Letter. She also enjoyed listening to country music, and with her moving from Florida she loved playing in snow. Carmen was a very kind spirited person that loved her brothers, sisters, family and friends. When asked in an interview on a radio station, while in the hospital in Florida, what she would like to have as a wish, her wish was not for something for herself, but instead something for her sister. Carmen gave gifts to others in the hospital. She gave her computer to the mother of a child that had cancer so she could educate herself as her child was going through many of the same battles she had fought. Another child had his leg amputated and she graciously gave up her wheel chair so that child could get around. A remarkable gift of kindness for others from someone so young and in the midst of a battle for her life. She will be missed by many.
Among the family left behind to mourn her passing are her parents, Joe and Karen Crisp, grandmother Lillian Crisp, grandparents Fredia and Herb McCumber, siblings Paige Blau, and husband David, Megan Crisp, Nick Crisp, Ariel Scialabba, Niko Zapata, Novalee Zapata, uncles, Richard McCumber, and Herb McCumber, Nephews Anthony, Christopher, and Johnathan Blau, fiancé David Kennedy, and his parents David and Judi Kennedy, many other relatives as well as a host of friends.
Funeral services for Carmen will be held 10:00 a.m., Saturday, October 8, 2011, at Hillside Christian Church, in Nowata. Burial will follow at Mt. Washington Cemetery, Lenapah, Oklahoma. Services are under the direction of Benjamin Funeral Service of Nowata.
