Can’t help but remember the summers we spent planning for our annual community barbecue.
Our social committee meetings were a hoot. Miss you Carol.
All my love
Val

Mary Anne and I (Mike) want to share a memory on this day.
We still miss you and think of you often.  We know you are with God and looking down on us.

I have many good memories from our friendship but the ones I love the most are the times we spent together in Branson. Our daily walks, shows we saw and meals we prepared and ate together. I will miss you when we visit Branson again and every day.
Rest in Peace my friend.

Dear Doug and Family,

We are saddened by the loss of such a wonderful woman and good friend. Herm and I met Carol and Doug 12 years ago when we were looking to buy our condo . We became fast friends and have spent many wonderful times together.
Our deepest sympathy to you and your family.

Herm and Val Schmidt






I just wanted to extend my condolences to the family. I met Patricia a few years ago at a family dinner. She was a pleasure to be around always smiling and made me feel as though I knew her years ago. I know she would be terrible missed by those who knew and loved her. May she rest in peace.

Doug and Family:

Carol lite up every time she talked about her family.  When we first moved into the condos, Carol was the first to welcome us, with some fresh baked cookies. Thank you for all the memories sitting in your garage. 

Karen and Murray Lawrence


Dear Doug and Family,

How saddened Ed and I were to receive word of the loss of your beloved Carol.  Our deepest sympathy to you and your family.

There is a very deep ache in my heart as Carol has been a dear friend throughout grade and high school together.  We began grade one at St. Mary's together upon introductions through our mother's who knew each other. 

After I was married and moved from Brantford, we stayed in touch throughout the years.  We have wonderful memories of visits with her and Doug, along with our mutual friends.  We are ever so thankful for the wonderful time she and Doug hosted for us in Florida.  

May God bless you, Doug, with peace and comfort during this difficult time.

Love Ed and Marian Kasala (DeFrancisco)

Doug and family, Carol was a very special person.  She loved being with family and friends and made me feel so welcome all those years ago when I joined the Cunningham clan. But as years went on we became even closer, Carol had a way of keeping friends close to her and making them feel special. She will be missed so much by so many.
Our love and condolences from Bill and myself, Kelly, Mike and her family and Aaron, Stacie. My brothers, sister and mother also wished me to send their condolences to all of you.  Our thoughts and prayers to all of you.

Mr. Cunningham (Doug), Gloria, Linda, Joan, Beth , Barb and families,
It is with deep sadness that I heard of the sudden passing of your wife and mom, Carol. I have only the fondest memories of the many days I spent  at the Cunningham home on Varadi Ave. Always welcoming, generous and kind, there was always room for the many friends who spent time at your home.  I feel blessed that I was one of them. What I remember most is the fun and laughter that always seemed to be part of whatever was going on.  
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this time of sadness. I hope that the wonderful memories of your mom will help sustain you as you deal with your profound loss.
I hope I will have the opportunity to see all of you when it is safe for everyone to be together.


Doug and Family,

Words cannot express the  heartache we are feeling for you and the family. Carol was a  role model to many with her faith and devotion in serving her Lord.   We were blessed to know such a beautiful soul. We will so  miss seeing her smiling face at church as will the residents of  St.Joseph’s Life Care who she visited and brought communion to.
Our deepest condolences to you and your family.   Luisa and Jim Pappert

Doug,Gloria,Joan,Linda,Barb,Beth and families.
Shocked, sorrow and an ache in my heart.
How lucky was I to be blessed to speak with Carol on the phone not once but twice that day.
Doug as you have said with conviction “All mothers are going to Heaven!  God must have a special place up front near Him for Carol! 
Myself, my family have so much love, respect and gratitude for you and Carol.
Carol. you will always be remembered for your good “heart”!
With love,
Shirley

May the many wonderful memories you have surround you and comfort you at this profoundly sad time. Let the tears flow. They are the fluid of holy moments....🙏❤️

We so much enjoyed having Carol as a part of our exercise class. Carol always came in with a smile.  She genuinely cared about others and was a great listener and friend. We feel so fortunate and blessed to have known her. 

It was an honour to have had Carol in our lives. George and I have many great memories of our wonderful times in Florida with Carol and Doug as our neighbours. We were, it seemed, always laughing when we were together.
Our thoughts are with Doug and the family at this time.
May you rest in peace beautiful lady.

I am very sorry to hear of Carol's sudden passing.  She was a beautiful person and will be missed by her fellow parishioners at St. Mary's Church.  My sincere condolences to her family. May she Rest in Peace.

Mrs. Cunningham was like a second Mother to me when Barb and I were growing up.  I spent countless nights sleeping over. I can hear her calling out from their room on Varadi Ave. in the middle of the night “ now girls, it’s time to quiet down” She was always a lovely soul and I will hold her memory in my heart ❤️

My condolences to the family on behalf of the Carbone family.

Let's spend the great lessons tough by Mrs. Cunningham, a wise and beautiful soul. 

She touch me patience, calmness and kindness. I admire the woman she was and will remain forever in my heart.

Feel the love and be at peace......in God's arm.

Carol was a very special and kind person. We will surely miss her and she will always be remembered and in our thoughts and prayers.
 Our heartfelt sympathy to her family.
         Ted and Jeannette Hunter
