Adrienne, you have been such a loving sister. Sending heartfelt condolences to you and your family.
I was Carol’s supervisor in the kitchen at the Glenwarren lodge for many years and have fond memories of Carol from that time. Carol was such a special part of our team, always giving her best effort to the residents in her care. My sincere condolences to the Chan family, she will be missed.
Dear Chan family,
I am very sorry to hear of your loss; my deepest sympathies go out to you all. My thoughts will be with you on Saturday. Take care.

Carol was small in stature but big in heart and spirit. Richard and Paulina Mark
Caroline was a sweet and helpful neighbour at St. John’s Court: I sat across the aisle from her in church and was awed by her patience and faith, while dealing with a nasty illness. She will be missed.
Dear Adrienne, Tony, Reg., and Vivian,
What a beautiful worded orbituary and picture of our beloved Carol.
My family, in Ontario, encluding me, will be thinking of you all on Saturday. Bertha
Carol had such a lovely smile and she had so much fun at the family events……….We will miss you deeply …..Paul & Lourdes Wing
Deepest sympathies to Carole’s family. I shared many summers with the Chan’s in Victoria and have the fondest of memories. Sorry I cannot attend the service.
Looking at Carol’s face, she reflects the character and love of both her parents, Uncle Steve and Aunt Rosy. We will miss her smile and positive outlook in life. Rest in peace, Carol. Till we meet again!
