Passed away peacefully in her sleep, Thursday March 14, 2024, at the age of 70. Beloved wife of Duncan for 43 wonderful years. Devoted mother of Jason (Tiffany) and Jeremy (Lindsay). Cherished grandmother of Kyle, Robyn and Logan. Survived by her brothers Ed (Mary) Hedge and Doug Hedge.
Predeceased by her parents Harold and Mary Hedge and her late sister Marge (late John) Armstrong. She will be missed by many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends. Carol spent 48 years working for the Windsor Health Care System as a Medical Record’s Technician. Her dedication to her career didn’t stop her from making time for her family. When her boys were young, she loved to parent escort on school trips, being part of the adventure with them. She would bring them to darts and sporting events to coach and cheer them on. After many years of volunteer service at Branch 364, Carol was awarded a lifetime membership for the Royal Canadian Legion. She held different officer positions ranking from 3rd Vice up to President, also working as Zone Secretary and District Secretary for quite some time. She really enjoyed organizing the Legions for the Easter Seal campaign and always felt so good to be able to present them with the donations that were raised from the televised events.
During her down time, Carol enjoyed bowling, baseball, fishing and gardening. She even volunteered her green thumbs with the Amherstburg Horticultural Society, tending the gardens at the Navy Yard Park and beautifying different areas of Amherstburg. Carol will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered for always being the life of the party at family events.
