About Max Carroll
Everett Maxwell (Max) Carroll was born in Nashwaaksis, NB, and after lengthy illness, died at VGH in his 86th year. Max was predeceased by only son Cameron Peter in 1986 and only daughter Mary-Jane in 2022, who died following cardiac arrest at St. Paul’s Hospital. The loss of his children had a profound effect on Max.
Max is survived by his loving wife of 61 years, Evelyn, and siblings Norris (Heather) of Sarasota, Florida; Connie (Raymond) of Holtville, NB; and Mavis (Steve) of California. In addition, nephew Sean Carroll (Suzanne) and niece Joni Carroll added joy to his life.
Max worked as an educator and school administrator for 35 years in School District 38, in Richmond, BC. He earned the affection of his students and the respect of teachers and parents alike. Max was an avid fly fisherman and enjoyed returning to the Miramichi River in New Brunswick as often as he could. There he could enjoy telling stories to his many cousins and their families. He also loved to fly small planes and for a time owned a Cessna 182, which gave him great pleasure.

In honour of his beloved daughter, Mary-Jane Carroll, it was Max’s wish that donations in his memory be made to the Mary-Jane Carroll Endowment Fund at UBC, which he and Evelyn created in 2023. Your gift will honour Max by supporting research in medical genetics and creating a legacy for Mary-Jane.
