In memory of
Carmen Marine Walters
January 12, 1944 -
October 25, 2025
It is with deep sorrow and profound love that we announce the passing of Carmen Marine “Pinky” Walters, who transitioned peacefully on October 25, 2025, after a courageous seven-month battle with lymphoma.
Born in St. Catherine, Jamaica, Carmen’s remarkable journey carried her from the lush hills of her homeland to London, England, and eventually to Toronto, Canada, where she built a full and beautiful life surrounded by family and friends.
Carmen was the devoted mother of Michelle Exeter, Michael Williams and his wife Kemba Williams, and Dean Williams and his wife Andrea Peart-Williams, and the proud grandmother of Nicholas Zolderdo-Williams, Tenisha Tomlinson, Kristienne Williams, Ella Scott-Williams, Ariana Williams, Zoey Williams, and Carver Williams. Her family was her greatest joy and the heart of everything she did.
A woman of boundless energy and compassion, Carmen had a passion for travel and adventure. She explored the world with those she loved — visiting countries across the Caribbean, South America, the United States, Europe, and more. Had time and health allowed, she surely would have continued her journeys, discovering even more of the beauty this world has to offer.
Carmen’s kitchen was a place of laughter, comfort, and love. She showed her care through her cooking, her kindness, and her unwavering support for those around her. Her warmth touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her — whether through her friendship, her generosity, or her infectious joy for life.
Carmen leaves behind a legacy of love, strength, and connection that will forever live on in the hearts of her children, grandchildren, extended family, and the many friends whose lives she graced. She will be deeply missed, yet her spirit and the light she shared will continue to inspire all who knew her.
