Carri was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York and she was very proud of this during her days as a jersey mama. Shortly after graduating from Brooklyn College with a degree in health science, she met her hubby in the Catskills during the summer of '81. When she had children, she joined the very popular migration to Manalapan, NJ with many close friends and family. She worked in her hometown for 15 years at the Lakeview Child Care Center - she loved her work at the center and considered her co-workers to be family.
Mama CJ brought so much joy to the world through her laugh, her home-cooked meals, her humongous heart and generosity. She loved being with her children and her puppies Ernie and Miley - she loved dancing, walking, healthy living, cooking for her family, and playing fun games. She was a very special person and will be missed dearly.
In honor of her memory we've setup this page to support research efforts for Sarcoidosis.
We love you Mike, Sam, Brandon, Andy and the entire Gerstein family. Carri will always be in our hearts.

Carri was not only a special person, but a very special cousin. I always looked up to her as an older sister while growing up. I recall our hangs outs at the library during college. This is where the final procrastination of papers and tests was a race of time. Despite it all we always aced it . We shared so many secretes, stories, and special times together. Carri's caring personality, thoughtfulness, and good hearted soul were just a few of her many outstanding characteristics. It was her laugh and beautiful smile that lit up the room whenever we were together. These fond memories will always live forever in my heart. I will miss you forever my dear cousin Carri !
