Rovie passed away peacefully at South Bruce Grey Health Centre-Kincardine, surrounded by the love of her family on Saturday, February 8, 2025 , in her 101st year. Beloved wife of the late Len Elmes (1993). Cherished mother of Kathy and Dave Trumble, and Kitt and Catherine Elmes. Proud grandma of Derek and Katrina Elmes, and Wes Elmes (Darren Avery). Adored great-grandma of Dawson, and Briar Elmes. Fondly remembered by Ian and Andrea Trumble (and their children; Evan, and Olivia) and Jean and Travis Breton (and their children; Jacob, and Emily). Dear sister and sister-in-law of Larry and Bonnie Rilett, and Mary Rilett. Loving aunt of her many nieces and nephews. Predeceased by her parents Russ and Annie (Brown) Rilett, and her siblings and their spouses; Volaine and Jim Hodgins, Laurence Rilett, and Eloy and Reenie Rilett.
Rovie loved her family with all her heart. She kept herself busy through the winter by attending as many of her grandsons’ hockey games as possible. From dawn until dusk during the summer months, you would find Rovie on her front porch swing offering a friendly wave, a warm smile and working on a crossword puzzle. At the age of 93, she moved to Malcolm Place and later R Villa, where she thrived and reacquainted with many friends along the way.
