Hello to our Woods’ neighbours, many of whom became dear friends…
This is Carrie (Salentyn)…as Thanksgiving just passed, I thought it would be a perfect time to reach out to tell you that we officially sold our home in The Woods on October 1st to a lovely family and that I have moved to a cozy little cottage in Bayfield, pretty well around the corner from Bianca and her precious family.
Jaap designed our home, with his very special Dutch touch, 31 years ago and we absolutely loved living in the Woods. Not only were Jaap and I warmly welcomed into the neighbourhood, but Michael and Bianca quickly made friends as well and many wonderful summers were spent exploring our backyard backing onto the beautiful Old Ausable river.
The Huron Woods Community became a pillar of strength for us when our precious Michael was taken from us on the very last day of his 4 year University CAM program…Our lives were changed forever as a bereaved family and still, neighbours reached out to support us. We will always be thankful for that. Now, as we also lost our beloved Jaap, we were once again shown the warmth and caring kindness of our Huron Woods Community. Thank you 🧡
As you all know, Bayfield is another lovely community and living so unbelievably close to Bianca, Sasha and our precious Rosalie, Frasier and Henry has been absolutely wonderful.
I know that Huron Woods will always feel like home to us…thank you for having made our years living there so enjoyable.
Hugs to all of my dear Huron Woods friends,
~Carrie
All the best to you and your family.

Carrie, We remember warmly when you and Jaap showed us through your home while it was under construction with my parents Joe and Kaye Semkowski. A move can be bittersweet but we know having Bianca and family nearby will help with the transition. Cherish the memories and look forward to the opportunities! All the best in your new home!
Warmest regards
Steven and Linda Jacka
Thank you Cam and Tricia! It is lovely to be a 6 minute walk/1 minute drive away from our kiddos.
Yes Linda, I do remember meeting you both then. It was an exciting time to see the home we had in our dreams, come together. Your mom and dad were wonderful neighbours and friends.
Thank you so much for your kind wishes…I am already enjoying it very much!
Warmly,
~Carrie
