Jo Anne Richards
Dear sister of John Richards and Jackie (Richards) Wright died at Hospice Peterborough December 12, 2021, after a short and courageous battle with cancer.
Jo Anne was the much loved daughter of R. Jack Richards (2007) and Sybil Richards (2018).
She will be missed by her sister-in- law Brenda (Spivey) Richards and nephews Dylan, Lucas and Wyatt Richards.
The proud owner of Spa for Paws in Lindsay Ontario, her whole life was devoted to dogs.
The true loves of her life were her Great Danes. She was involved with Great Dane Rescue and more dogs than can be counted passed through Jo Anne’s home and loving care. Some moved on to forever homes and some were foster fails. Her family were never sure how many dogs might be encountered on a visit.
Thank you to Drs Kristine Roberts and John Beamish for their compassionate care of Jo Anne during these difficult months.
The family are also grateful to Hospice Peterborough staff who showed Jo Anne so much loving care during her last days.
A private family service will happen at a later time.
If wished donations in Jo Anne’s memory to any animal welfare organization would be appreciated by the family. Condolences to the family can be made online at CommunityAlternative.ca.
