Born November 5, 1988, in Kitchener where she resided until she was lost by her son Colton Morrell, her birth son Jaxon Wall, her mother Patti Disano (Paul Young), her father Dale Holland (Carine Nind), her brother Seth Holland, and her extended and mixed families and many friends on April 5, 2023. We are heartbroken. Kaela was compassionate and caring to a fault, intelligent, articulate and creative. Although at times discrete about her feelings, Kaela could not abide witnessing powerless people being treated poorly. The shining light that Patti, Dale, and others that knew Kaela to be could not be extinguished by the circumstances that came to dominate the last 12 years of her life. If you knew Kaela or know a family member, or even if you're reading this obituary for some other reason, we ask that you fearlessly treat persons with addictions or mental health challenges in a way that lets them know that they are respected, supported, and loved.
