I'm so sorry to hear that this beautiful lady has left us, but I'm relieved that her suffering is over. There are so many great memories of such a kind and devoted wife, mother and grandmother who was always "doing" and "caring" for those she loved. I'm sure she felt all of that love returned to her as the family tenderly helped her throughout her illness. Debbie, Diane and Darlene, I'm sending lots of love and prayers to you and your family as you adjust to life without her daily presence. I know your love for her and your fond memories will keep her near. Let me know if I can help in any way.

Rita was a great nurse and good friend. She was respect by all her co-workers . I worked with Rita at the the North unit for years till she retired. She had a great sense of humour. She will be missed by many. My heart goes out to Debbie, Diane and Darlene and their families.

It is with such a heavy heart that I write this message. Deb, Di, Darge, I send you my prayers at your loss of this wonderful woman. I have such great memories of Aunt Rita; a woman who could find humour in almost any situation. She is making God and the angels laugh now.

There are so many fond memories of going to the Pruner house in Smiths Falls shared by three generations of the family. It was full of love and caring. Always welcoming. Rita exuded this in everything that she did...a gift from her mother...and a gift passed onto her daughters. Rita is now with the man she so dearly loved. She is at peace. Many prayers and blessings to Deb, Diane and Darlene and families. You are in my prayers.

We were so fortunate to have moved into the Golf Club Rd. house when your parents were ready to move from their family home. We still love it there. I also think of you, Debbie, and how well you cared for my Dad (Roy) during his dialysis. Tony and I extend our sympathies to you and your sister at this sad time and may you be comforted by fond memories of your mom.

I want to send my sincere condolences to the Leach Family. My husband and I met Rita and Eric when were in Ormond Beach. They were as we were great friends of Lois and Robert Bennett from Boston. We enjoyed them so so much! Rita actually made a Red Sox Sweater, Hat and Mittens for my grandson Michael and sent it to me. My daughter still has it and cherish forever. I lost my husband 2 years ago and now Rita is up in Heaven joking Eric and Bob. Rest In Peace Rita I love you.❤❤❤
