Little did I know that when our paths crossed, Carol would set me on the road within the world as that of a celebrant. She embraced me, guided, and supported me, not only with my work but within my life. This wee lady who I instantly connected with, helped me to grow as a person with confidence to face adversity. We became colleagues and I’m privileged to be able to call her my friend…

Our thoughts are with you all Allan, Rachel and your families. The word mentor certainly resonates with me as she kept us on the straight and narrow through our teenage years. Always giving sound advice about good choices and always there to listen. Loved that pork dish that she used to make too! Our love is with you all through this sad time. Love The V's (Vaeluaga's).
