Carol died serenely at home in Calgary, Canada as she had wished, with her three beloved sons at her bedside. An adored and adoring mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, godmother and friend. Carol will be greatly missed in all of our lives. She was the heart of the family for her sons Clive (Julie), Michael (Moira) and Tom (Kiyomi), and her six grandchildren Rebecca, Trevor, Graham, Emily, William and Katherine. She will also be fondly remembered by her brothers Clive and Richard Carr, sisters Sarah Bagge and Mollie Armstrong as well as by all her family around the globe.
Born in Wales, Carol spent most of her childhood in Surrey, England with a sojourn in Canada during WWII before completing her education in Switzerland. At 18 years old she married a Canadian diplomat, Frank G. Hooton and together they toured the world, taking on assignments in Paris, Saigon and Ottawa before finally settling in Montreal to raise a family. In later life she married Leslie H. Gault and helped raise his three sons Nicholas, Alexander and Sebastian. Carol loved to laugh and share good times with friends and family, creating many memorable events in Charlevoix, London, Montreal and Calgary. Carol's natural elegance and style meant everything was always pure perfection.
An accomplished athlete, Carol enjoyed tennis and golf with her many friends at the Montreal indoor Tennis and Murray Bay Golf Clubs. An avid bridge player, Carol loved a competitively fun afternoon at Calgary's Ranchman Club.
She was also a corporate board member, providing her insights and perspectives to BMO, The Nat'l Capital Commission, The Park Lane Hotel and at Settler's Beach in Barbados.
Carol taught us that we can choose to be positive in our lives. She taught us that even through adversity, illness, difficult family situations, we should be grateful for all that is good in our lives, that to be loved and to give love is our greatest foundation.
Friends are welcome to join us in celebrating Carol's life on Tuesday, October 13th 5-8 pm at 4094 Cote des Neiges.
