It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Carol Ann Watson, who passed away peacefully at Pioneer Lodge in Palliative Care on Thursday, July 11th, 2024, in Moose Jaw, SK.
Carol was born on September 1st, 1954, in Moose Jaw, SK. She worked in the laundry department at St. Anthony’s from 1973 until its closure, and moved to laundry at Providence Place until 2007, then transferred to Pioneer Lodge to work in housekeeping until 2009, at which point she retired as she could no longer work due to a brain aneurism.
Carol was a loving wife, mother, sister, auntie, and grandmother. She married the love of her life, Darrell, on May 17th, 1975, and was married for 49 wonderful years. They were blessed with 3 children: Nicole, Anita, and Jason. Carol enjoyed camping, watching the grandchildren in their numerous sports, travelling, shopping for her bling clothing, spending time with her family during holidays and special occasions, having her weekly supper with her sisters, and her daily trip to Tim Horton’s for her chocolate chip muffin and diet coke.
She was predeceased by her parents, Irvin Stewart “Stu” (2004) and Myrtle (2008). Carol is survived by her loving husband, Darrell; daughters, Nicole (Daryl Smith), and Anita (Daryl Carter); son, Jason (Samantha Flett); grandchildren: Tyson, Tristan, Hayley-Ann, Colton, Autumn-Rayne, Katie, and Adison; sisters, Fay (Rick) Cowan and Gail Stewart; as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
The family would like to thank all of the staff at the Dr. F.H. Wigmore Regional Hospital, Regina General Hospital Cardiac Surveillance Unit (CSU), and Pioneer Lodge Palliative Care (Memory Lane) for taking such good care of Carol.
