Cara Elizabeth Arsenault's Obituary
Cara Elizabeth Arsenault, age 49, of Lewes, DE, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, June 30, 2025.
Born on August 9, 1975, Cara was the beloved daughter of Betty (Dodson) Kuzis and the late Ernest Arsenault. She was a vibrant and joyful soul who embraced life with warmth, humor, and a strong love for her family and friends.
Cara found happiness in life’s simple pleasures—roller skating, tubing, swimming, and enjoying her self-declared “Summer Olympics.” She especially cherished her time working at Bethany Blues in Lewes, DE, where she took pride in serving her customers with warmth and enthusiasm. Her work there brought her joy and connection, and she formed many lasting friendships with both coworkers and guests. Her laughter, energy, and generous spirit made a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
She is survived by her two beloved children, Hunter and Fischer; her longtime companion, Dave Dormanen; her mother, Betty Kuzis, her stepfather, Charles Kuzis; along with extended members of the Kuzis family.; and her brothers, Corin Arsenault (wife Nancy) and Kevin Arsenault (partner Kim). Cara also leaves behind many cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and cherished friends who will forever hold her in their hearts.
She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all whose lives she touched.
