Carol Ann Blais, passed away on Monday, October 8, 2018, at Prairie Lakes Community Hospice in Grande Prairie after a long, courageous battle with cancer, at 59 years of age.

Carol was born in Edmonton on September 15, 1959 and was welcomed into the loving home of Oscar and Emila Blais a short time later. Carol was very bright and excelled in school and in sports, especially swimming and piano. She grew up in Grande Prairie, had a son Jamie; and moved around Alberta trying to make a better life for them. She finally settled in Campbell River, BC for many years until relocating back to Grande Prairie about 10 years ago to care for her mom Emila, whom she was very devoted to.

Carol was fiercely independent, had a strong mind and opinions and a kind heart. She was very sentimental and collected articles of interest: news clipping and other memorabilia, saving them for family and friends.

Carol will be sadly missed by her mother Emila; son Jamie; granddaughters Katelyn and Brianne and their mother Jeanette; brothers Mark (Lily) and Ron (Bonnie); her Auntie Mary, Uncle Terry, Uncle Roy, and good friend Doreen; as well as many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.

She was predeceased by her father Oscar, Uncle Joe, Aunts Dorothy and Elizabeth, and all her Dad’s siblings on the Blais side – except for Uncle Roy.

A Private Family Memorial will be held.

Memorial Donations may be made to Grande Prairie Hospice Palliative Care Society (Box 21215, Grande Prairie, AB, T8V 6W7).
