With heavy hearts, the family announces that Carol passed away in the comfort of her home with a view of the Mississippi River, with loved ones by her side, on Monday morning, May 12, 2025. She was 76 years of age.
Beloved wife of Bob Clouthier for 33 years, and predeceased by her first husband, Glen Grace. Dearly loved mother of Jamie Grace (Candace) and Sherry Grace (Todd Warren), and stepmother of Bobby J. Clouthier (Cathy), J.P. Clouthier, and the late Marc Clouthier.
A vibrant and devoted grandmother to Michael Grace, Natasha Detweiler (Scott), Chris Grace (Mercedes), Grace Wilson, Angela Clouthier (Katie Kline), Derek Clouthier (Jamie Croft), Danny Clouthier, Courtney Clouthier, Adam Redpath, and Shawn Christopherson, and great-grandmother of 15.
Carol made every visit special—filling days with swimming, baking, card games, and encouragement that sparked curiosity and confidence in each of them.
Dear sister of Charles Graham (Shirley) and Sandra Judd (George). Predeceased by her parents, Martin and Mabel (née Johnston) Graham, and her brother, John Graham.
Carol grew up in the Kawarthas, raised her children in Kitchener-Waterloo while working as a social worker with Family & Children’s Services, and was active in the Knox Church community. She and Bob built a rich life on the Mississippi River, hosting gatherings with warmth and love.
An active participant in curling, golf, card groups, and book club, Carol also enjoyed travelling annually with Bob, wintering in Mexico. She nurtured many strong, enduring friendships and faced her illness with quiet strength and unwavering determination.
