As Pearl Stein prepared to attend Founder’s Day at Moravian on May 17, she was reminded of one of her friends who was a loyal and proud alumna, Carmella Carrescia. Carmella passed away on Sept. 20, 2012, in her hometown of Roseto. Carmella graduated from Moravian with a B.S. in elementary education and received a master’s degree in education in 1964 from Lehigh University. She taught fifth grade at Stockertown Middle School and was a reading specialist for the Nazareth School District for 32 years before retiring in 1989. Carmella assumed leadership positions in many education organizations and senior citizen groups. She volunteered her time and skills at the Bangor Public Library and at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel School Library. She always had time for her relatives and friends, meeting regularly at Moravian for alumni weekends and Christmas vespers. Pearl remembers Carmella’s wonderful sense of humor and positive outlook on life. She still has a collection of emails that Carmella sent, saving the ones that made her laugh out loud, in addition to those with inspirational messages. Carmella was a very special member of the class of 1957.
