We Remember
TAYLOR, Carol Eleanor
January 1, 1970 — October 11, 2016
With great sadness, at Hospice House in Kelowna BC and surrounded by family, our dear Carol passed away on October 11, 2016 after a brief two month battle with cancer. She was predeceased by parents Tom and May Adams and brothers Al and Don Adams. Carol is survived by her husband Paul, daughter Penny Biblow (Duane) and beloved grandchildren Milena and Hayden. She is also survived by brothers Garnet Adams (Carol) of Peterborough ON, Murray Adams (Judy) of Whitehorse YT, and sisters Joan Gattie of Whitehorse YT, Marlene Leclerc (Dub) of Kelowna BC, Cyndi Ramsfield (Rick) of Red Deer AB and many nieces and nephews.
When Carol was 12 years old she moved from Meaford Ontario to Whitehorse Yukon with her family and just three short years ago retired to the Okanagan. Carol’s life was guided by her faith in God, love of family, sense of community service and her artistic and creative endeavours in her backyard gardens and her not so small craft room! Her sharp wit and engaging personality allowed for many hours of laughter and years of friendship. She will be forever loved by her family and fondly remembered by her many Yukon friends and her Westside Alliance Church family in West Kelowna.
A memorial service and celebration of Carol’s life will be held on October 20 at 1:00 pm at Springfield Funeral Home in Kelowna. We wish to extend our gratitude for Carol’s care to: Central Okanagan Hospice Palliative Care home nursing staff, Dr. T. Murphy, Pain management team at Kelowna Cancer Centre and everyone at Hospice House Kelowna and the staff at Springfield Funeral Home.
In lieu of flowers we would encourage you to consider donating to either Central Okanagan Hospice House or the Gideons.
