Elly-Mae Cariou Obituary
With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Elly-Mae Cariou (Edmonton, Alberta), whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Elly-Mae left this world on February 10, 2025 at the age of 84, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Elly-Mae Cariou to show support.
As we bid Elly-Mae farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Elly-Mae is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
