Cherished daughter to Don Goodale Sr. (Rose), Theresa Toner-Burke (Bill). Karin will be profoundly missed by siblings Don Jr. (Rose), Paul (Lan), Cathy (Doug), Bill (Kemi-Lee), Jen (Bruce). Karin is auntie to Tara, Casey, Cody, Kevin, Sarah Jane, Hunter, Ivy, Steven, Anita, Jalen, Malia and Max. Step sister to Larry, Fred, Jon and Bonnie Burke, Jackie Jamie and Jon Madill. For all the things Karin will be remembered for is her love and devotion to her family and her beloved pets ( dogs, cats, fish etc...) Karin grew up a quiet, confident little athlete enjoying track and field, hockey and soccer. She had a career as a dog groomer till her daughter Celesse was born, later to be a dental assistant. Other than her daughter, Karin's true happiness came when she met her best friend and husband Blair. Together they loved the good and battled the tough! Karin shared a unique and caring love with her mom Theresa....her angel of unwavering care and support for many years. The pain and loss we feel in our hearts is comforted knowing she is free from the pain and ravages of MS. Run free Karin with Mindy, Evie, Titch, Di Di, Trixie, Fred, Peanut, grandma and grandpa Toner, grandma and grandpa Goodale, Carol, Judy and all those who have gone before us. Our lives will never be the same but our sweet memories will carry us till we are all together again. Visitation will be held at the Kopriva Taylor Community Funeral Home, 64 Lakeshore Rd.
