Lovely person always had a smile.

Our condolences to the family on the passing of Aunt Rita. I'm forever grateful for the trip I made in January with my mother (Bridget) and my aunt (Tilly) to spend a little time with her when she was hospitalized. When I moved to Ontario, Rita was living there, and going to visit her was like going to a second home.

R.I.P.

I met Rita when she came to work with us at the Chignic

She was a hard worker, always with a smile

We became fast friends

A real Gem

My condolences to Tracy , Darlene , her grandkids and all her family and friends

What a wonderful woman. I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Rita on my trip to Canada and her trips to New Zealand. Rita was always smiling and laughing and was so easy to just chat to.

My heart breaks for her family and friends.

Thank you Rita for being you.

May you Rest in Love for eternity.

From all your NZ friends. Xx

I do remember Rita at the chignic. Knew her very well. I visited her many times in Codroy valley. I had no idea that she was sick. Rip my friend.

Our sincere condolences to Tracy, Darlene , Roy and the kids. Vicki and I spent a couple of hours with Rita a week before she passed. We played cribbage and shared some laughs reminiscing about when I first came to Ontario and our memories from over the years . She will be definitely be missed by us and many many more people who knew her.

RIP Rita

I was heartbroken to hear of Aunt Rita’s passing. I have beautiful memories of spending my summers at Nanny’s in Newfoundland and Aunt Rita was a big part of them. She gave me the comfort and strength needed to get through my Mom’s passing. I will miss her . Fly high with the angels!❤️❤️

My heartfelt condolences to all of Rita’s family and friends. There was a lady who always brought a smile to your face, always a kind word, and a little wink with a smile. May your happy memories bring you comfort in the days ahead 🤗❤️🙏🏻

A loving, funny and always welcoming aunt. To have such a fun aunt was always the highlight of visiting the Valley.

The love and kindness that the girls showed while they helped their mom fight her battle will be carried in their hearts.

Stopping every day after work when I was pregnant and Rita waking me up when supper was ready.

She was one in a million and I so appreciated and loved that she made us such a special part of of her immediate family ….will miss and love you forever.
