Carol Parcher Obituary
February 12, 1950 -
July 26, 2020
Our beloved Carol Ann Parcher (Land) left us on Sunday, July 26th, 2020 to go home to her saviour. Jesus opened his arms and said welcome home my daughter. Her fight with cancer was a long and painful battle. The family is comforted in the knowledge she is now at peace.
Carol progressively pursued her life's passion of being a social worker, teacher and biblical councillor. Her degrees in Social Work, Bachelor of Education and masters in Biblical Counselling from Lakehead University allowed her to move into challenging and rewarding work with The Salvation Army, Hogarth Riverview Manor and Lakehead Psychiatric Hospital. Her compassion and beautiful smile touched and helped many lives. The empty space she leaves behind will be filled with love and memories.
Carol is predeceased by her parents Fred and Betty Land and her son Justin Parcher. She is survived by husband Ronald, daughter Shannon (son-in-law Jeff), son Derek (daughter-in-law Shauna), grandchildren, Noah, Ciera, Josiah, Aidan and Dominic, brother Fred, sister Dianne, brother-in-law Doug, nephews Shaun, Cody, Jesse and her niece Kelly, great Aunt to Erin, Doug, Kelsey. Shayne, Liam and Logan.
The family would also like to thank the many physicians at the Thunder Bay Regional Hospital involved with Carol's care with special thanks to Dr. Simpson who went above and beyond. Thanks also to the VON nurses, who came every day, and Carol's nurse practitioner, Aaron for their caring of Carol at home.
Due to Covid-19, memorial church service details are not yet available at this time. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Foundation or the charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated.

Thinking of you in your time of loss. Carol was such a kind, caring, energetic and giving person. I have often thought of her and your family over the years since moving from Thunder Bay. May God's peace rest with you at this time.

You have your wings now little sister. Freedom from all your pain. I am left behind to miss you everyday for the rest of my life. When mom brought you home from the hospital the day you were born, you smiled at me and I held your hand. I knew then nothing and no one could ever break that bond. I am heartbroken but love never dies. Enjoy your new journey. We will meet again. Your big sister, Dianne.

I really can't call Carol my sister-in-law as she was more of a sister. We were all young and grew up together over the past 60 years sharing good times and bad. When Carol married Ron, we welcomed him into our tight knit family. We would all hang out together whenever we visited each other. Our trip of a lifetime was to Greece where we enjoyed the beauty, Peter and Joy's hospitality, eating the delicious food and, of course, Ron and I carrying the bags while our two beautiful wives shopped till they dropped. She was so loved and words can't describe the loss that is felt.

My Aunt Carol was a kind and wise soul. The kind of woman who rebelled just enough, but showed compassion. She once taught me how and when to stand up to bullies when I was young. I may not have agreed with her always, however, Carol “walked the walk” in terms of her faith and convictions part of her personality I truly respected.
I will always remember her and my Mom (Dianne) giggling and talking late into the night. Perhaps solving the mysteries and madness's of life, or just maybe having a good old chat and laugh. For this nephew, that silence is deafening, however, those happy times will live on in my memory forever.
I will miss my Auntie Carol, my heart breaks for her family left behind. The world will seem emptier without her.
