It is with profound regret that we share the passing of Kathy Wright, Co-President, CARP Ottawa Chapter, and Chair, CARP Advocacy Working Group on LTC. Kathy passed away on June 19th following a brief illness.
Kathy was a natural leader and mentor with a strong vision and determination. In her retirement years she focused her advocacy efforts on changing long-term care homes from “institutions to homes”. She was the driving force of the CARP Advocacy Committee on LTC. We will miss her immensely but we will use her legacy to continue the work she started.
Anthony Quinn, President, CARP National, couldn’t express this profound loss more beautifully than in his tribute to her. Read his tribute – click here
A celebration of life will take place on Saturday, July 4 from 1:00 – 4:00 pm at the Ottawa Tennis Club (176 Cameron Avenue).
