Event details
No memorial events are planned
Carlos always said he'd want to be cremated and his ashes spread in the ocean, where he spent his most favorite moments. We plan to spread his ashes in his 3 favorite places: Key West, so his ashes can make their way to Cuba where he was born; South Padre Island, where he met Tammie and lived for a big part of his life; and Cabo San Lucas, where he and Tammie were married and he went on his last fishing trip with his daughter Kira. We plan to do this on his 3 most special holidays--Fathers' Day, his birthday, and Thanksgiving.
