We are so sorry for your loss. It seemed that CareyLee had nothing to die for and everything to live for. However, cancer took it’s toll. We love you guys very much. I am so glad you are so close with your mom and dad and extended family Tom you will need them. We are all sending our support from Picton and some of us will see you over the weekend and on Monday. Take care. Love Susan, Robert and Family.
Laurie May
I am very sad to hear about Careylee.
I’ve had the pleasure of teaching Megan and getting to know this wonderful family. Megan was always strong and brave and so supportive of her Mom…even shaving her own hair so that her Mom would not have to be “the only one that was bald”. Megan organized cards, gifts, fund-raisers etc. One particular bake sale included Megan and several of her class-mates dressed in pink aprons. Hundreds of cookies, muffins and brownies sold out in a record 20 minutes. All of Megan’s endeavours helped us all to feel positive and hopeful.
I will never forget the day that Careylee came into my classroom to talk to my students about Cancer and her personal experience with this disease. She led an honest and candid discussion and helped the children to realize that it was O.K. to ask questions and share their fears with her. When one of the children asked if she would take her wig off, she gladly obliged. The children responded to her shaven head with a hushed respect. That was a day that they will never forget….and we will never forget Careylee.

I cannot think of her without seeing her amazing smile and thinking about how amazing she was.
I will eternally be grateful for the time I had to get to know her when we were in Primary together, and I had the pleasure to teach Megan.
You are an amazing family. All of you have been so strong and positive through all of this, remembering that you will have all eternity with her.
Please know that if you need anything from me all you need to do is call. Any help I can give to make this time a little easier for all of you would be my honour
Randy & Pat Templeman & families
Even at the end of her life her thoughts and concerns were for Tom, her girls, her family and friends.
She was an earthly angel-and even though we only had her in our presence for a little while- her example and her memory will never be forgotten.
She has graduated with flying colours while the rest of us study on!
May God bless and keep her until we meet again.

I only knew Careylee for a brief time of my preceptorship at the Headwaters hospital. She was one nurse who inspired me during my experience. She welcomed me onto the team with open arms and was always willing to share her knowledge with me. She was a fun person to be around and I remember her smile, it would light up a room. I often thought to myself thats a type of nurse who I would like to become, a great role model.
Though I only knew her for a short period she has touched my heart and will remain there with the rest of my memories of Headwaters. God bless
ANDY & PAT TEMPLEMAN & FAMILIES

I was privileged to meet Careylee June 2009 and again In October 2009. I met her at a girls’ weekend in Sauble Beach. Even thought I was with her only these 2 times, I quickly knew that she was a beautiful person. Her love for you all was very evident. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God has chosen a very special angel. I will always be thankful for being blessed with meeting Careylee.
Laura Chiasson
Gary Russelo
Although I never met Careylee, I and most of my fellow employees at MC, felt we knew her personnally and she was part of our big family.
I can remember Tom telling us, almost daily, about her last pregnancy and birth of their last girl. We all waited with anticipation along with Tom for her birth.
He would often bring in pictures of her and the rest of the family.
My sympathy goes out to your entire family, especially your father Sandy and your mother. I know you will receive a lot of help and support from your friends and family, that includes your MC family.
Benjamin McAlister

Dear Dad, Megan and big sister, little sister,
Our entire class had a good cry when we heard the news. We hope that the cards we made helped make everyone feel better. We decided to go to the forest on Thursday. Everyone wanted a quiet time to think about your mother, our mothers, our families and how sometimes life doesn’t seem fair. After our quiet time of listening to the birds and the wind and feeling the icy rain on our faces, we gathered in a circle and prayed. You didn’t have a mother for a very long time but you certainly had a special mom. She will live on in the positive spirit of her three amazing daughters, loving husband and family.

Dear Vanderkolk Family,
My sympathies and condolences are with your family at this time. I read a wonderful poem and would like to send it to you.
When those we love go away, they never really leave us;
they are with us now, wherever we are.
Those whom we have cherished, live on forever,
for love wraps itself around the heart.
Although it’s difficult now,
someday beyond our tears and all the world’s wrongs;
beyond the clouds and all that we can see and touch,
we shall all understand.
Even though we never met, my heart goes out to all of you.
Jenny Changizian

Tom ,Bailey, Magan and Riley. My thoughts and prayers are with you at the most difficult time of your lives. Careylee was one of the best nurses I ever worked with. She loved nursing and it showed with care compasion and the gentle touch she gave to her patients. She was loved at work and will be greatly missed. We all fought with the two of you while battling her cancer. Always hoping and praying she would win this battle. But God needed more angels in heaven and he took the Best. We all have so many great memories. Hold on to them.

Anabel, Malcolm and Todd Doige
We are very sorry to learn of your family’s loss. Our son, Malcolm, is in grade 3 at Primrose, and I, Anabel Doige, volunteered and worked at Primrose for 3 years. During 2009/10, I had the honour of seeing this family rally around their mother. In particular, I was touched by Brave Megan, who shaved her head to walk with her mother through her chemo — what tremendous spirit they all have! Please, tell Megan in particular, that Mrs. Doige is thinking of her and sending her lots of love. I too lost my mother at about the same age — my heart is with her. Megan can know that she stood by her mother when she needed her, and that her mother’s spirit will always be with her.
Love, Mrs. D. and Family

I tell my kids that we keep a special place in our hearts for our childhood friends, & their family. This is especially true today Tom,we are all so sorry for your family’s loss.Be strong,carry on.

God speed Careylee
Connie Swindlehurst
They say people come in to your life for a reason, Careylee was one of them. I met her when my Dad was in the ICU unit. He would ask if the nurse with the pretty smile was there. Her smile would light up the room and make everyone feel better just looking at her. She was always smiling, happy, caring and always took the time to talk to patients and listen to them. She definitely chose the right profession….as a nurse, you couldn’t get one any better. She will be missed terribly by all those who had the privilege to work with her. Your memories of her will carry you through this. She was one awesome lady and will be sadly missed by all. My deepest sympathies go to Tom, the girls and the families.

We are saddened by the loss of Carylee and want you to know that she will be missed by all who knew her. We know that Kathy will have a hard time finding such a good friend as Carylee has been.
When Carylee and Kathy came to visit us we took a few pictures and have them on our digital picture frame, we see the two of them together almost everyday, we will never forget her and great time we had when she was here. Our prayers will be with you and your children and we know that Heavenly Father will provide the comfort that you need in the coming days and weeks.
Jonathan Goldthorp
Thankyou for all the fun times you gave me. I loved the big breakfasts you made for us when we stayed at your house. Bailey I really loved the day that we were able to spend shopping together and having lunch with both our moms. She was a great friend to our whole family.
Penny Start
I met Careylee last summer while working on E Wing. In Careylee I found a person that we would all aspire to be – she emplified kindness, honesty, intelligence, strength, a truly beautiful person and angel on earth. In true Careylee, she was the one supporting all of us as she fought cancer and I truly believed that she would win the fight. Unfortunately, God has other plans and even though her time with us was short, she left a part of herself with everyone she touched.
Tom, Bailey, Megan and Riley
My deepest sympathy to each of you. May God give you the strength during this difficult time and know that many prayers are extended to you to carry you through these days.

Sincerest regards, Phil & Amanda Templeman
Christine Korbey
Tom,
I only just heard today that Careylee died and I am so very sorry for your loss. While I could tell from the stories you told me over the last month the end was near I had no idea it was this close. I cannot imagine how you, or your girls and extended family must feel other than a sense of complete loss and focus in your lives. You gave her evert ounce of your love, support and unconditional commitment to her well being but unfortunately the disease was out of your control and outside the reach of our medical knowledge to cure. Take care my friend.

I had the great pleasure of working with Careylee at Peel Memorial Hospital in Brampton many years ago.
I will always remember her wonderful smile and beautiful hair.
We had many deep conversations during the long night shifts we worked together. I pray for strength for you all at this difficult time.
I will never forget her.

We are so sorry to hear the sad news. Careylee was a kind and loving person, always had a beautiful smile and always knew what to say. Mikayla and Megan were in the same class in Kindergarden at Montgomery Village School. We will never forget Carylee, she really was a beautiful person who life was way too short.
I am so sorry that we did not keep in touch over the years, and I am very saddened to hear the loss of Careylee, I wish I would have known.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all, please give the girls a big hug from us, and please if there is anything that we can do please do not hesitate to contact us, and please tell Megan that Mikayla is so sorry to hear the loss of such a wonderful mother.

Hi Terri and Eleanor,
It’s me, Jewelry Girl!! I am sad to hear of your loss. I remember meeting your sister/daughter at the Jewelry counter a ways back, while she was in remission. I was fixing her watch, and she was there with her husband. You know how I can talk….well, she was so grateful to me, and I told her it is something I do all the time, no big deal. She revealed to me who she was, and I was so surprised, as I had heard of her, but never met her. She lit up when I told her how much I loved her sister and mother! She mentioned that she was out with her husband, kid free that night, and in remission. I’ll never forget her, she was so sweet, and her husband soo proud!! I hope this moment had you smile, even for a second. I am happy to have met her. God bless you and her family! Luv you, Cheryl

A few years ago I had the pleasure of teaching two very special girls, Bailey and Megan, in Kindergarten. I fondly remember each girl for her affectionate personality, kindness and wit. I knew their amazing spirit came directly from their parents. Careylee was such a kind and caring mom. I really enjoyed having her come and volunteer in the class because she was always smiling, laughing and, honestly, she had the most beautiful hair (I remember telling her that her daughters were so lucky to inherit that)! I was sad to see their family move away from our school because I knew that Tom and Careylee were raising wonderful children and I would miss seeing them grow up. Girls, grow up and live like your mom and you will be amazing people.

I heard words today that should never have to be spoken. I will cherish the memories (at the gym, her awesome hair and of course her smile) I have of Careylee from our younger years forever and wish I could see her one more time. What a beautiful family Careylee and Tom created. My thoughts go out to them at such a difficult time. Also, my deepest regrets to Eleanor and Terry who I love to chat with while at Walmart. Hope to see you soon.

Careylee and Amanda (my sister) were friends from school and I knew Carelylee from a nursing course in 1995. She was a very nice girl and I will remember her and I talking a lot about nursing and our families. Take care, what a beautiful family you have and so sorry for your loss.
