Rhea Wohl
1941-2018
Rhea Wohl passed away
peacefully in her home surrounded by her loving family.
Born Rhea
Shaffer on March 9, 1941 in Ottawa. She grew up, the second child of
Harold and Frances Shaffer in Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto. She
married the late Teddy Wohl and they made their home and raised their
children, the late Michael Wohl (Miriam) and Deena (Keith), in London,
Ontario. She moved back to Ottawa in mid-life after her children were
grown and stayed until she decided to move, along with her mother and
sister to Toronto. She spent her last 15 years there appreciating the
opportunity to spend time with grandchildren, both in Toronto and with
frequent visits to Vancouver to her other grandchildren. Rhea loved
classical music, concerts, live theatre and was happiest when
socializing with dear friends and family or doting on her
grandchildren. She was passionate about social justice and frequently
involved herself in committees that served community
needs.
She is survived by her
siblings Stan Shaffer (Susanna Uchatius), Jayeson Shaffer (Dailaan),
Dorothy Shaffer, daughter Deena Devereaux (Keith), daughter in law
Miriam, grandchildren Jonah & Evan Devereaux and Teddy, Hannah
and Dani Wohl, and nieces Alannah Shaffer and Alex
Edwards.
