CAROL SANDILANDS


It is with heavy hearts, we announce that Carol Ann Sandilands passed away unexpectedly on May 12, 2024.

Remaining to cherish her memory are her sons, Jason (Trish), Glen (Kerri), grandchildren, James and Savannah (their mother Rebecca), grandsons, Rory and Connor, her sisters-in-law, Judy Dale, Susan Clark, and many nieces and nephews. Carol will also be dearly missed by her Ness Avenue Baptist Church family.

Carol was predeceased by her beloved husband of 50 years, Max; her parents, Lillian and James, brother Bruce and sister Shirley.

Carol was born in Halifax, NS, and was raised in Windsor, ON. She later moved to Winnipeg where she lived for a few years before travelling abroad. After marrying Max in 1972, the two relocated to Canada in 1976.

Carol’s professional career was rooted in Administrative Management, spending the majority of her career working within the Faculty of Dentistry at the University of Manitoba and the Department of Surgery at the Health Sciences Centre.

Carol's most cherished moments were spent with her family and friends. She had a heart of gold, a passion for nurturing her loved ones, and was known for her kind-hearted nature and infectious smile. Her legacy of love and kindness will forever remain in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to have known her.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Thursday, May 23, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. at Ness Avenue Baptist Church followed by a private family interment.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Naomi House c/o City Church, 484 Maryland Street, Winnipeg, MB R3G 1M5.

Condolences & Memories (4 entries)

  • She was a kind, loving friend. We met at the Senior Centre and bonded over husband care. Later when I was away in Mexico for the winter we kept in touch through FB messenger and she said she was living vicariously thru my flower, beach and Mexican activity posts! I’m so sorry for your loss and I will remember her loving spirit always. - Posted by: Marie Friesen (Friesen) on: May 29, 2024

  • I extend sincere condolences to the Sandilands Family. Carol was one of the nicest woman I had the pleasure of knowing. She will be remembered with much fondness. - Posted by: Linda Hamilton (Friend from St. James 55+ Centre) on: May 23, 2024

  • Carol was an angel here on earth. I got to know Her through her professional work as as finance Director at the 55plus Recreational Centre. She always had time for a smile and chat with me no matter how busy she was, which made her a special, beautiful person to know. She shared stories of family fun and always asked how I was doing. Sadly we lost touch after her retirement from the Centre but her living spirit and smile will always touch my heart that I was blessed to know her. She has earned her true angel wings and I know she’ll be watching over all her family and friends and enjoying the comfort and peace of her place in heaven. My sincere condolences to all her family and friends including those of the Ness Baptist Church. - Posted by: Lisa Sears (Friend) on: May 20, 2024
