BRADLEY JAMES CAREW

CAREW, BRADLEY JAMES It is with great sadness that the family of Bradley James Carew announces his passing on September 21, 2024. Brad will be sadly missed by his loving wife, Maire; his children, Erin (TJ), Conor (Jael), Lauren (Mike), Jennifer (Daryl) and Tim; and his grandchildren, Sarah, Lucie, Molly, Taylor, Brooklyn, Claire, Rowan, Kali, Fia and Noa; his sister, Susan and husband, John; brother, Larry and wife, Nancy; and his huge extended family. Fondly remembered by his dart buddies, the Algonquin park crew and his many friends. Anyone who knew Brad has suffered a Brad joke: "don't stop me if you've heard this." He loved the outdoors, fishing in Algonquin Park, golf with his sons-in-law and friends in Alliston, and was a wiz when it came to darts. He had a long career with the Toronto Star as a manager in the circulation department. He always said he bled blue. In 2000, he was forced to "retire" due to a heart issue that he'd had since birth. In spite of multiple operations and setbacks, he lived every day of his life to the max. More than anything else, he loved his family. He was the coolest Dad, Grandad and best friend to his wife, Maire. As the years went by, his illness shrank his world but the smile never faded. He was a gentle man, a courageous man, and a man who was loved by everyone who knew him. Many many thanks to Dr. Mark Fisher and the team at Toronto General Hospital, especially Dr. Michael McDonald, Dr. Andrew Ha, and our guardian angel, Stella Kozuszko. Celebration of Life to be held at Henley Gardens, 1093 Kingston Rd., October 7th, from 2-5 p.m.
