In recent years she engaged in online video and chat games to stay connected with her distant friends and her fiancé Yuki Kawaguchi. She had plans in the upcoming future to join Yuki in Japan, where they would have begun their lives together.

Left to carry on the memories of Carla Jean Anita Durnin are her father Richard Durnin, mother Laura Durnin, brother Jordan Boman, fiancé Yuki Kawaguchi, nieces and nephews, along with many other family and friends.
