It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Suzanne Carrier. She has very recently been found passed away on November 14th at 51 years young. Born on October 23rd, 1972, she is survived by all of her sons, Justin, Tyler, and myself. Her sister, Vicky. Her mother, Myrna. and my father, Andrew.

In loving memory of Suzanne, whose presence left an indelible mark on the hearts of those fortunate enough to know her. A paragon of strength and resilience, she faced life's challenges with unwavering courage, standing tall even in the face of adversity. Suzanne enjoyed creative endeavors, animals, and standing up for those in need.

It was her boundless dedication and love that truly defined her spirit. A giver at heart, she cared deeply and selflessly for the well-being of others. Her legacy is not just one of accomplishments, but of the countless lives she touched and the love she shared.

As we are all struggling following this loss, it is made all the more difficult because Suzanne had passed due to drug overdose. May we remember her not solely for the circumstances of her passing, but for the entirety of her being. Her struggle does not define her essence. In commemorating her memory, let us strive for empathy, understanding, and a collective commitment to combating the formidable challenges of addiction that afflict too many lives.

Included below are local resources for addictions and drug overdose support services. You are not alone.

Though she may no longer walk among us, her memory lives on in the stories of her strength, resilience, passion, intelligence, and creativity. May we honor her by embodying the same qualities that made her a beacon of light in our lives.

During this complex time of grieving and stress, we are very gratefully requesting assistance for relief of excess financial burdens. We appreciate every bit of support, financial or otherwise. We will update when a service date has been arranged.
