Carolyn Connolly November 16, 1953 - August 2, 2008 In Loving Memory of Carolyn Connolly Carolyn was an Ojibwe woman from Curve Lake First Nation -near Peterborough, ON. Carolyn was a sweet woman who would literally give the shirt off her back to a total stranger in need, regardless of race or sex, without asking a question. Many women have commented on how she got them off the street, telling young prostitutes that they were not street smart and would not survive out there. Carolyn never judged anyone she met and desperately wanted others to see her as the true person she was: a kind woman with a heart of gold, who loved all, and just wanted to be loved and respected in return. On August 2, 2008 at 7:30 AM a man walking his dog, found her body sprawled out in an alleyway at Shuter and Seaton Sts. in Toronto. Her autopsy showed she had been beaten to a pulp then when she was on the ground, unable to defend herself anymore, was stabbed multiple times in her heart. Her murder is unsolved. -with lots of love, your cousin Amber You may select another name from the memorials list, or return to our home page:
