Obituary of Carolyn Joyce Penitan

PENISTAN, Carolyn Joyce, nee Sharpe, later Jones.  B. 13 June 1948; d. 26 April 2019.

Carolyn was born in Sackville, N.B.  She and her mother followed her father to military postings; after his death, Ola took Carolyn to Liverpool, where Carolyn acquired an education (at Merchant Taylors School) and a brother (Malcolm Jones).  Upon their return to Canada, Carolyn earned her B.A. (Hon.) at U. of T.  Marriage and work (for Bell) took her to Stratford, Brantford, and Oakville.  Carolyn took early retirement and moved to the country north of Kingston, to be close to family, and lived happily in Lyndhurst, devoting much of her time to the Gananoque Humane Society shelter.

She died peacefully at Kingston General Hospital.

She will be fondly remembered by all who knew her.

Many thanks to the ICU staff, for attentive care and safe passage.

Donations, in lieu of flowers, to the Gananoque Humane Society, please.

Celebration and commemoration at the Beaufort Pub, 173 Dundas St. E., Belleville Sunday, May 19, 1-4.
