Mazda 3 allegedly driving eastbound in the their lane crashed into their Toyota. Carol was airlifted to Credit Valley Hospital in critical condition, where she died.

“I think it is senseless,” said Claude Grimmond, Carol’s father, his voice quavering with emotion. “What is sad is that the other driver had not a scratch. But she has taken my
