For the next few years, she ministered as religious education teacher at St. Therese Parish in Johnstown. Later, she joined the Montessori staff at St. Francis Medical Center in Pittsburgh.

OBITUARY: SISTER MARY CARMEN PUHL - Sister Carmen Puhl left behind a godly legacy. - Welcome home, Sister Carmen Puhl, OSF As we mourn the March 4 passing of our dear Sister Carmen, we also celebrate with joy a life truly dedicated to the service of all God’s people. - Her ministry in New Castle as a nurse at St. Francis Hospital, nursing home administrator at Hill View Manor and co-founder (along with Dr. John Prioletti) of St. Francis Hospice, brought to the canvas of nursing the colors of compassion, integrity, vision, transcultural love, and a deep conviction that every person in whatever stage of mental or physical incapacity deserved equal respect and dignity. It was apparent to those who saw her in action that she acknowledged that God temple in everyone to whom she ministered. The memory of her, which will forever be etched in our minds, is of one who had a special love for those afflicted with AIDS, of one who compassionately held the hand of the man or woman dying in hospice, or the times when she quietly and patiently without judgment listened to one baring his or her soul, or the memory of working with her on the first Peace and Justice Committee of the Sisters of St. Francis. - Upon retiring from nursing, Sister Carmen went on to offer her services at Mt. Alvernia Day Care and Learning Center in Millvale, where she joyfully rocked the tiny babies, providing much TLC. - Yes, we will keep your memory alive, Sister Carmen, in our attempts to follow your example until we, too, experience the loving caress of a God who welcomes each one of us with open arms. - Anyone wishing to remember Sister Carmen in a special way, may make a donation in her memory to the Sisters of St. Francis Ministry, Formation or Retirement Fund, 146 Hawthorne Road, Pittsburgh, PA 15209. -- New Castle News, March 28, 2017
