Kaela Holland Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 13, 2023.
Born November 5, 1988 in Kitchener where she resided until she was lost by her son Colton Morrell, her birth son Jaxon Wall, her mother Patti Disano (Paul Young), her father Dale Holland (Carine Nind), her brother Seth Holland, and her extended and mixed families and many friends on April 5, 2023. We are heartbroken. Kaela was compassionate and caring to a fault, intelligent, articulate and creative. Although at times discrete about her feelings, Kaela could not abide witnessing powerless people being treated poorly. The shining light that Patti, Dale, and others that knew Kaela to be could not be extinguished by the circumstances that came to dominate the last 12 years of her life. If you knew Kaela or know a family member, or even if you're reading this obituary for some other reason, we ask that you fearlessly treat persons with addictions or mental health challenges in a way that lets them know that they are respected, supported, and loved.

Kaela you were such a beautiful person with a big heart. Even though you struggled with addiction, you never let that change how caring you were and how much love you had to share. I hope you rest in peace because you deserve it!

I read Kaela's obituary and even though I didn't know her, I was touched and saddened. I lost my daughter at 26 in 1993. Tracey had similar problems. I cut out Kaela's obituary because it brought back many memories and it was so beautifully written. You have my deepest sympathy.

Kaela never lost her sweetness and caring self. I knew Kaela as a child in school with my son and as a sister to my youngest son´s friend, Seth. Beautiful smile. Sweet soul. I´d see Kaela over the years. She always asked about my daughter and how she was doing. Kaela and I would talk at length about life. There are many who had hopes for her. Covid hit and changed a lot of those hopes. Know Patti and family that we are thinking of Kaela and praying for her boys and your family. Rest in peace sweet girl.

My heartfelt condolences to Kaela's children, family and friends.
I didn't know Kaela a long time, but she has impacted me, and I'm saddened by her loss.
She was devoted to her children despite her difficulties. Her smile was beautiful.
Bless you all.

I read the obituaries every day as a pastor, and this is one of the most moving ones I've read. I am so sorry for your loss, and I take to heart your challenge to respect persons with addictions and mental health challenges. I wish you the very best, especially during this difficult time.
