It is with heavy hearts and deep sorrow that we share the passing of Ms. Summer Cartrette, a beloved daughter, friend, and member of both the Blount County, Alabama, and Aliquippa, Pennsylvania communities. Summer, just 26 years old, tragically lost her life in an automobile accident in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Sunday, October 19, 2025.
Born and raised in Blount County, Alabama, Summer was known for her bright smile, warm heart, and compassionate spirit. Those who knew her best remember her as a young woman full of energy, laughter, and love for others. She had a remarkable ability to lift spirits wherever she went — a friend to many, a loving family member, and a light in every room she entered.
After moving to Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, Summer built meaningful connections within her community. She was admired for her determination, kindness, and the way she treated everyone with respect and empathy. Friends describe her as hardworking and genuine — someone who never hesitated to help others, no matter the circumstance.
Her sudden passing has left a profound void in the hearts of her loved ones. The pain of losing someone so young and full of life is immeasurable, and her family is now navigating an unimaginable loss. As they grieve, they take comfort in the countless memories and moments shared with Summer — memories that will live on forever in the hearts of all who loved her.
Funeral arrangements will be handled by Cleveland Funeral Home, with a complete obituary and service details to be announced in the coming days. Family, friends, and community members will have an opportunity to gather, honor her memory, and celebrate the beautiful life she lived.
Though her time on earth was far too brief, Summer’s legacy will remain — one of love, kindness, and compassion. She will be remembered not for how she left this world, but for the joy, laughter, and light she brought into it.
Rest in peace, Ms. Summer Cartrette.
Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure — you are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.
