Sister Friend 


God is our Hope and  Strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore  will we  not fear, though the earth be moved, 
 And though the hills be carried into the midst of the sea.
Carren you were  a  very  smart  kind  and  caring individual you would give away everything  your  heart  desire. I miss you so  much  for  your  loving  ways. 
  In Our Hearts .....
We thought of you today.
But that is  nothing  new. 
We thought about  you  yesterday. 
And days before that  too.
We think of you in Silence.
We often Speak your name.
Now all we have is memories 
And your picture in a Frame. 
Your Memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping. 
We have you in our  heart. 🙏

Rest in eternal  peace 🙏

You were loved and always will be ❤️

My Carren,
It is hard to put 15 plus years into words. I can hear you calling me “Ree you take care of herself you hear” & I would say right back at ya sis”. 
Our daily talks would go on for hours, sometime we would fall asleep on the phone lol . We talked a lot, we are both Scorpios those were some convos. Brent could attest. 
However this time I’m a bit speechless not having you on the other end … 
You will always be “my Carren” my sister & I will continue talking to you & I know you’ll respond  just a little differently now… 
Love you my Carren you were one in million & I was so blessed , thankful & lucky that I had you for as long as I did.  Forever your sister 🩷🩷🌸🌸

With a heavy heart I'm remembering my dear niece Carren who was always a very happy, cheerful, loving & kind niece who was super adored by her father William Lee (my brother) and her devoted mother Pearl who denied her nothing so no wonder Carren loved all things sweet.
 Her love for Brent was & still remained remarkable as she told me "yes aunt Pat I want to marry him", saying so in her mischievous smile, chuckle and laughter.
  For all of Carren's Canadian cousins, along with aunt Polly, uncle Syl and myself we say so long and farewell knowing you're at peace and once again with your parents.
 From aunt Pat

Carren was truly one of a kind. Every moment we spent together was filled with joy, and her laughter was absolutely infectious. She had such a warm and caring heart, always checking in and sharing a kind word. We made it a habit to text each other just to say hello and see how things were going. I’ll never forget how she always asked about my dog, Liam, and with a big smile, she’d say, “Where is Liam?” Every time she saw him, she’d greet him with that same smile and say, “Hi, Liam.” I will miss her deeply; she was not only a great neighbor but a great friend.

Carren, 

It is still so hard to come to terms that you have left us. We were your parents' tenants but we were like family. We've watched you grow up from your Prep School years at St. Cecelia Prep to High School. You were at my graduation from Shortwood Teacher's College, and we were always doing things together.  Those nights when we would watch scary movies and then be afraid to go to bed. 
Carren, you were one of the most fun loving persons we knew. You had a laugh that was so contagious. You were a very smart,kind, and caring individual and would give away your last. 
When you migrated, we kept in touch and would speak to each other regularly. You would always ask for everyone you knew back home.
Our condolences to your husband and the rest of the family. You will surely be missed, but the memories will live on. 
Rest in peace, our sweet Carren. The angels of heaven are with you. ❤️

My heart aches for you Carren.
You were such a kind, loving, selfless and warm person. You were more of a sister to me than friend. I remember all those funny and memorable times together.

 You were my bridesmaid; what a lovely time that was! You did not even know you were my bridesmaid until you arrived in the UK for my wedding. This became a lasting joke between us and Carren you did such a beautiful job supporting me that day.

We go back since age 8. During our Sixth form years, I stayed in your home and we shared a bedroom together. What conversations we had at nights. 

I miss you sooo much. We always had  such deep conversations, setting the world right and organising family lives. 
This I will miss terribly. We were able to talk about everything deeply and honestly! We shared  such a  special bond. ❤️ I will not say goodbye as you will always be alive in my heart  . The last time we spoke,  we prayed together and I was hoping to visit you, but you went so quickly.  You are now in the presence of your Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ 

 I know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord [ 2 Cor 5v8.]
I know you are now at peace and with your parents. 

Carren I  will now go to the friends we know and busy the sorrows I feel doing good deeds. Missing you but letting you go.

In my heart always, we will meet again some sweet day. 

Love you sis, sleep in peace. X

Your sister friend,

As I sit here writing this tribute to you I still don’t believe you are gone.  My head knows it true but my heart still cannot accept it.   I thank God for the day I met you when I walked into BCCI. We shared so many good memories over the years but one thing never changed you were always smiling and laughing.  It’s so hard knowing I cannot pick up the phone and hear your voice again.  Sleep well my friend now that you have gained your wings. 
Brent. I’m so sorry for your loss.   Please accept my deepest condolences.

Carren at one point in my life was the  closest cousin to me and my four siblings as we grew together in the same yard.

From childhood days she was a kind and loving person. She had a big laugh and is always smiling. 

She is the one who is always keeping in touch via social media or a brief WhatsApp call and will always share a  spiritual thought 

I did not see her much during our adult life as she had migrated. The last time I saw her was in 2017 at my father's (her uncle's) funeral.

The last time I spoke with Carren was a few weeks before she passed and if I didn't know of her illness I wouldn't have known that she was sick because she was still high spirited

I offer condolences to her husband Brent and the rest of the family 

Sleep on cuz, hope to meet you in the New Jerusalem

Sincere condolences to the entire family of  A Beautiful Angel , Kay  ; she was loving , kind and always had that sweet smile on her face! You’ve gained your wings ! Soar with the angels ! Rest in eternal peace! Sending prayers and hugs for all . 
You were loved !

To my dear friend Carren 

I will never forget you and everyday I am thankful for your love and friendship. 
  You went the extra miles whenever you could and genuinely cared for everyone.  The light dimmed on all our lives now that you are no longer here, but it is no surprise that even when you are gone you still keeping us all going knowing that you would tell us to carry on and stay strong.  
   Carren, you are gone from our sight but never from our heart.   
My friend until we meet again- Diane Dixon, Love You 

John 11, 25-26 Jesus told her, I am the resurrection and the life .  Anyone who believes in me will live even after dying.

Brent and Family, Carren was a wonderful person I’ll always have fond memories of her and our days at NBS. my sincerest condolences and prayers.

I will always remember the way that Carren could make every day feel so warm and joyous. I can hear her voice in my head as she yells for Liam’s name (our pup) as she sits on the porch and smiles while I walk by. I always looked forward to spending some time with Carren during gatherings because she would always laugh at my corny jokes and her kindness was so genuine. I miss seeing her and being able to share a laugh but I know that she is in a better place and has peace. I am forever grateful for having the opportunity to know her and spend some time with her.

My dearest friend for over 45 years. 
A genuine and loving soul.
Thank you for your friendship 
Thank you for your support 
Thank you for your love
Thank you for allowing my family and I to initiate our adult life by sharing your space at 18 Queens Ave.
I love you eternally
