POOLE, Rita Genevieve - June 8, 1966 - January 22, 2022
Age 55. Our precious one-of-a-kind Rita passed away peacefully at Port Perry Lakeridge Hospital in her 55th year with family by her side.
She is predeceased by her mother Genevieve Poole (Murphy) and Lawrence Gower Poole.
May she reunite with those before her and have a big piece of chocolate cake that her sister Karen can’t stop her from having!
She was adored by her siblings Larry (late Susan), Janet (Chuck), Joan (John), Donald (Judie) and her best friend and sister Karen (Stephen).
Loved as Aunt Rita by Tasha (Ahren), Ashli (Patrick), Joshua (Katlin), John, Michelle (Matthew), Lance (Shannon), Sean, Kyle (Julia) and Shevaun, and her many great nieces/nephews who will learn about their great aunt through stories.
Rita will be missed by her roommates, friends and staff who were her extended family at Community Living Durham North for 20 plus years! Thank you for your unwavering support, commitment, humour, and excellent care. We grieve and celebrate Rita together.
If you met Rita, you’d likely remember her sense of humour!
