An obituary published March 6 describes Carr as a mother of two who “loved nature, taking walks, crossword puzzles and elephants.” The obituary thanked “the wonderful nurses that took care of Stanny at Surrey Memorial Hospital as she fought the injury that wounded her.”

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) has since taken over the case.

“Ms. Carr was known to police, and her death is not believed to be random,” said IHIT Cpl. Frank Jang in a media release.

Anyone with information is asked to contact IHIT or Crime Stoppers if they wish to remain anonymous.
