Rita was actively involved in the Sudbury hockey community when her children were young. With a giving heart, she was always quick to ensure other children could participate as well. She was an avid reader, from novels to newspapers, to gossip magazines, she loved it all. She was an excellent cook and hosted many a Christmas dinner over the years. She loved knitting and thoroughly enjoyed watching hockey and tennis. She will be remembered for her quick wit, big heart, and feisty nature. As per Rita’s wishes, there will be no service.
