Carole's name came up recently when I was talking with my brother who moved not long ago to St. Vital with his family. With kids in the same school and similar activities, Carole asked Matt if he was related to me. I was impressed that she remembered me from our time at the EK Y in the late 80's, early 90's. Carole and Shaun were fixtures as lifeguards in the pool at the time. Carole was always smiling and laughing. I'm really sorry to hear she has passed and I hope strength can be Take care. - Posted by: Jessica Irvine (Former EK Y Leader buddy) on: Mar 20, 2016

I met Carole through the EK YMCA through the Leaders program. She always exemplified the virtues of caring and compassion, knew how to keep things fun and was one of those people I'd always hope to run into again. She made a lasting impression and I will never forget her. - Posted by: Justin Pauls (Friend) on: Mar 20, 2016

I can still remember the first time I saw Carole. I was n the sixth grade her mother was my teacher and brought her and Shaun on a field trip with us. Later I had a chance to spend several years with her at the Y and later still she worked for my sons doctor. It's been a number of years since I last saw her. She was a special person and will be missed. - Posted by: Steve Chaytor (Former Aquaintence) on: Mar 16, 2016

I had the joy of knowing Carole as a close friend in High school. She was loyal and sincere. She had the talent to make people laugh with a silly sense of humor and always let other people shine as bright as possible sometimes by taking a step back to let that happen. Such a gift. Peace, Carole. - Posted by: Alison Elias (Former Aquaintence) on: Mar 16, 2016

Such sad news to hear. I knew Carol for years as a lifeguard at the EK Y in Winnipeg where she taught me swimming lessons at several levels right up to my NLS certification. We also shared a common connection to Camp Wasaga at Riding Mountain National Park, where I went with my family and would later work. I still remember how excited she was when I told her I was going to follow in her footsteps by working at the Camp after becoming a lifeguard. She was such a warm and kind person to know and occasionally work with at the pool, and although we hadn't been in touch in over 15 years, I still remember her fondly. I'm thankful to have known and learned from her. My condolences to her family. - Posted by: Josh (Former lifeguard student and coworker ) on: Mar 15, 2016

I had the great fortune to work with Carole at the Y. She was such a kind person who always made time for people no mater how busy she was. She was a fantastic mentor and all round great human being. I am heartbroken for Mike, Sophia and Carter. Carole truly was one in a million and made the world a better place. Rest in peace Carole. - Posted by: Cheryl Burrill (Colleague) on: Mar 15, 2016

I worked with Carole at Camp Wasaga in Riding Mountain in the early 1990's, and only just reconnected with her when our kids went to the same school. She was a joy to be around, and will be missed. My condolences to her family. - Posted by: Scott Young (friend) on: Mar 15, 2016

My sincere condolences to her husband, her children and relatives. I had the privilege to get to know Carole as a colleague, as a parent and a friend. Her warm personality, her kindness and friendliness was like a ray of sunshine in my life. I admired her as the wonderful parent that she was, always supportive and active in her children's education. She is dearly missed. - Posted by: Sylvie Leochko (Colleague, her daughter's teacher and friend) on: Mar 15, 2016

Sorry to hear about Carole’s passing, she will be missed! I enjoyed her company, visits and endless help at the Varennes Family Centre. She always brought her smile and her wonderful sense of humour! We had many chats about all kinds of topics that always ended in laughter. Friends and family were all very important to her. She enjoyed spending active evenings at Family Gym Night. She was a person who brought joy to all those she touched. My heart goes out to you Mike, Sophia, Carter Joan, Marcel and your family during this hard time Jacquie Rey (previous coordinator) - Posted by: Jacquie Rey (Friend & Family Centre Coordinator) on: Mar 15, 2016
