McGirr, Carol 1937-2019 It is with great sadness that the family announces her passing on Jan 2, 2019 peacefully in her 81st year. Predeceased by her parents Ethel and Carl of North Bay and sister Marilyn. She will be missed by her niece Kerri (Bob) MB, Great-niece Christine (Todd) North Bay, Great-nephew Sean (Jody) MB and Great-great nieces and nephews Dylan, Ian, Kerri-Laine, Madison and Carson. Carol spent her many years dedicated and devoted to our education system with R.H. McGregor Elementary School…teaching many and became admired by 1000’s. She also was a very well respected storyteller across the world and she made storytelling “her life story” She started Fireside Epic in 1994 and for over 10 years produced 36 concerts where her passion and love of her folktales came to life. A lifetime of memories also built with Story Telling Toronto and 1001 Friday Nights of Storytelling. Her magical and intriguing voice will be forever heard with her Laxadala Saga 3 CD Collection. Carol was happiest when she was giving life to the story and capturing her audience. She will be forever missed by all who knew her, but her impact on so many will be felt for generations to come. Her family would like to thank the staff at Michael Garron Hospital-Dialysis Department for the wonderful care she has received over the past years.

And now Carol’s story will live happily ever after with all of us that she has touched. Interment will take place in the Spring in North Bay
