Default Carmen Berra

I have met Carmen Berra twice.

In the mid-1980's, Yogi was the signing guest at the Asbury Park Convention Hall Show. A very large crowd arrived to see Yogi, talk with him, and have Yogi
sign their items. It was a really fun show.

While Yogi was up on the stage signing, Carmen went around to all the dealers at the show looking for Yogi memorabilia, BB cards, etc. She chatted for quite
some time with all of us, and I will never forget how delightful she was.


And, several years ago, I ran into Carmen in front of Schneider's Bakery in Cooperstown NY on HOF weekend. I asked her how Yogi was, then we talked about
the neighboorhood in Montclair, NJ. At that time, my daughter, Debbie, lived 4 houses down the street from the Berra residence.


GOD Bless Carmen....and, GOD Bless and comfort Yogi and their Family.
