CAROLINE LORRAINE RAWLUK (nee RUTLEDGE) 1938 - 2011 Peacefully at St. Boniface Hospital on Thursday, September 29, 2011, Caroline passed away at the age of 73 years. Survived by her children, Robert (Diane), Cheryl Vinall (Peter), Paul (Danielle), Vicky Trask (Ian) and sister Audrey; grandchildren, Nicole, Mitchell, Eben, Dean, Ryan, Shaelyn, Erin, Mackenzie, and Mary. Caroline was predeceased by her father Jim, mother Mary, brother Jimmy, and grandson Matthew. True to her Irish heritage Caroline's independence and tenacity were a cornerstone of her personality. Caroline took great pride in her accomplishments at work and loved and enjoyed her travel adventures. It was the joy and love of cooking for her family, gardening and reading but mostly times spent with her grandchildren that gave her fulfillment in her life. We would like to thank all the staff at St. Boniface Hospital, Grace General Hospital, and Riverview Health Centre for their help and support. In particular we would like to thank the many home care workers with WRHA Homecare Services who worked with Carol over the years. A private ceremony has been arranged by the family. If friends so desire, donations may be made in Caroline's memory to the Addictions Foundation of Manitoba (AFM), Attention Finance Department, 3rd Floor, 1031 Portage Avenue, Winnipeg, Manitoba R3G 0R8. May the road rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back, May the sun shine warm upon your face, The rains fall soft upon your fields, And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
