March 17, 1944 – October 4, 2022

On October 4th 2022, Carol Patsy Belle Kirby (Goodberry) passed away peacefully. Carol was 78 years of age when her struggle with Alzheimer’s came to an end.

Carol is predeceased by her husband Gary Kirby, her daughter Susan Kirby, her grandson Jaime Kirby, her sisters Sharon Hogan, Jocie Blaine and Lois Mc Gihon.

Carol leaves behind her sister Debbie Winkie, brother Harry Wayne Goodberry, daughters Lucinda Feighen and Larissa Kirby, and her son and daughter in law Scott and Susan Kirby. Carol also leaves brothers in law John Blaine, John Hogan, John Winkie several grandchildren, many nieces and nephews, and cousins.

Carol spent her years as a child in the Verona area, lived in Kingston and Deseronto. Carol was a Mother, a wife, hairdresser, secretary and worked as a mental health nurse at Kingston Psychiatric Hospital in her lifetime. Carol enjoyed crafting, gardening, sewing, cooking and singing with her sisters in the award winning groups The Good Berry sisters and with the Kingston chapter of Sweet Adeline’s. Carol also shared many good times and made special memories with her family at “the Cottage”.

Carol’s family would like to thank Helen Henderson for the fabulous care Carol received over her last two years living with them.

Carol was a spiritual, kind and generous person and as such we request that any memorial gifts in Carol’s honour be made to The Kingston Food Bank, the Kingston Youth Shelter and or the Alzheimer’s society.

You can also choose to donate a tree in Carol’s memory through the tribute store on her obituary. A family celebration of life is to be announced at a later date.
