Susan CARRE Obituary

Published by Ottawa Citizen on Apr. 14, 2015.

CARRE, Susan Jane
September 19, 1963 - April 13, 2015
Our sweet Sue has gone to rest in the peaceful presence of her Lord and Saviour, and to happily join her dearly missed Mom and Dad, Norma and Henry Carre. Susan slipped away peacefully in her sleep, at Elisabeth Bruyere Hospital, surrounded by the love of her sisters and brothers; Norah Slater, Anne (Jerry) Raper, Geoffrey and Kenneth (Karen) Carre. Susan will also be fondly remembered by her "favourite" nieces and nephew; Marnie Rylaarsdam, Jay Rayner ("him's cute"), Robin Peixoto, Becca Raper- Gutknecht and Andrea Slater and their families; as well as by Annibaa, extended family and many friends. In spite of her many challenges, Sue exhibited pure, unconditional love and kindness in all her interactions with others: a humbling example of goodness to us all. We are especially grateful to all of Susan's caregivers at her homes and in the dialysis units for the exceptional and compassionate care they provided. Visitation will be held from 6-8 p.m. on Wednesday April 15, 2015 at the Pinecrest Recreation Complex, John McDougall Lounge at 2245 Torquay Avenue, Ottawa, with a short relaxed Celebration of Life to share memories, stories, readings, etc. from 8-9 p.m. Memorial donations to Lions Camp Dorset, P.O. Box 306, 1087 Camp Dorset Road, Dorset, Ontario P0A 1E0.

To all the family we offer our sincere condolences. We had the privilege of meeting Susan at the family home in Ottawa oh so long ago. We cam across the death notice while doing family history research. Again, so sorry! Eric & Denise Carre, Thornbury, ON

I taught Sue in the Adaptive Learning Program for many years. She was always a gentle sweet soul and will be missed. My thoughts are with you.

Our home at Forest Gate won't ever be the same without her delighted and welcoming greetings whenever we came in, compliments of "you're pretty", "I love you", "I got you!", and "ok, hotdog!". Sue was a delight to work with, and I was especially inspired to witness the strong family connections...that does not often happen. My warmest regards for Sue's family. Xxx

My condolences to Sue's family.
Rest in peace Suzie Q! I remember the time we listened to Abby in the van and you were singing "I believe in Angels". You have touched the hearts of soo many! I will never forget you!

I live on Southgate Road and Sue was my neighbour for a number of years. We rode the city bus together from time to time and I also saw Sue at the occasional social event at Rideau Park United Church. I remember her with a great deal of affection. I will never forget her characteristic "Hi, remember me?" hello, which always proved too great a temptation to pretend I did not remember her (as if anyone could forget Sue!. I enjoyed her hugs and her warmth. If anyone could make me laugh long and hard, it was Sue coming up with a priceless comment on something or somebody (such as her comment on her brother working with rats!) She was a big presence in the neigbourhood and the Group for Friends social events at Rideau Park Church. Please accept my sincerest sympathy. I am very sorry to hear of her passing.

So sorry to hear of your sister and aunt passing. I remember her from years ago and she was so sweet and smiley. May she rest in peace in heaven. Deb and Peter Slater and family.

Sincerest sympathies to Sue's loving family. I have such beautiful memories of Sue. When our "gambling girls" played Bridge Sue would hug me as I was the other "Norma". I also felt a special bond with her as she reminded me so much of my beloved younger Downs Syndrome sister in Ireland. Rest in peace darling Sue in the arms of your Mom and Dad.
