Carol May Irvine
December 22, 1951 – April 20, 2025
Carol, a cherished member of our community, passed away at the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Hospital at the age of 73. Though the details of Carol’s early life are few, Carol created a legacy of resilience and loving kindness. She touched the hearts and brought job to everyone she met. People looked forward to interacting with Carol whether it be a medical professional, pharmacist, a bank teller, delivery person, or a security person, they all loved to see her. Carol was known for her acceptance of everyone she met, positive humour, compassion, and determination to “do it herself”. She loved to keep herself busy whether it be playing games on her iPad, doing her workbooks, colouring, listening to her music, and singing along, watching her special TV programs, visiting her many friends and of course take good care of her bird, Sammy. Her smile and excitement were contagious, and everyone loved her from the moment they met her.
Carol will be missed by so many people. Thank you to all the Citizens All staff who were very special to her and who she considered family. Carol will be missed by her chosen Mom and Dad, Brad and Kandy, her chosen sisters, Cristin and Karlee, Babes, Uncle Roddy, and Nan. Her chosen grandparents, Derenda and Paul Moerike and friend Mackenzie. Her dearest longtime friend Donna Corthny of Winnipeg who faithfully called her on a weekly basis. Carol also had a special friend in Lana Padbury.
Thank you to the staff on the medical unity of the Dr. F.H. Wigmore hospital for the wonderful, compassionate care they provided to Carol. Thank you to the many homecare staff who also provided Carol assistance and support in her home.
A celebration of Carol’s life will be held on Tuesday, May 6, 1:30 pm at High Park Towers, 220 High St. East. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Moose Jaw Humane Society, reflecting Carol’s love for animals.
