Thinking of all the memories we made in grand bend.
Trucking two car loads of toys to the beach. Playing all day long with your siblings and cousins. Staying until sundown. Never wanting to leave.
Trips downtown to play mini golf and to eat ice cream
You getting up bright and very very early on Christmas Day. You were always the first one up. Did you even sleep?
Skating and playing hockey on the pond with your siblings and cousins while your mother and I watched from the car
Competitive H-O-R-S-E basketball in the driveway. Then Mack came along and showed us her stuff
Taking Mr Wilson for our family walks. Ending up at the park and sliding on the zip line
Hearing you talk and laugh with your siblings and cousins late into the night, you always wanted to sleep? In your sleeping bags under the pool table
Kara you will be missed by all of us and we will forever cherish the time we had with you. Someone so special will never be forgotten.
May you now rest in peace.
With love
Aunt Barb and Uncle Darrell
My sincerest condolences to all members of Kara’s family on your loss. I was Kara’s teacher in one of her primary years at school. It was such a joy having her in my classroom. She was a bright girl with a beautiful smile, always very enthusiastic about learning and the many fun experiences we had at school. After moving away from the school where I taught her, it was so nice to touch base with her now and then or ask grandma at the bus stop how she was doing, as her family moved to the neighborhood where I lived. This is a great loss and I will pray for her family as I know the days, months and years ahead will be difficult for all of them. I know that Kara is in heaven and is now at peace!
Our deepest condolences for the loss of your beloved daughter, Kara. You have our sincerest sympathy and unwavering support. Wishing you peace, comfort, courage and lots of love at this time of sorrow. Our hearts go out to you and your family at this difficult time.
