It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our wife, mother, grandmother and sister Rita Leost.

She will be greatly missed by her husband of 49 years Edgar, daughters Claudette, Michelle, Nicole (Brent); grandchildren Karen (Cody), Evan (Kasia),Lance, Jayda, Noah, Paige, great-grandchildren Ethan, Nyah and Lucas; her brothers and sisters; many nieces, nephews and friends. 

Rita's ultimate joys in life came from her family and faith.

Thank you to Father Rene, Father Paul and Father Dominic for offering spiritual comfort to Rita and family throughout her brief illness.  A special thank you to Father Rene who prayed with Rita and her family as she found peace with her heavenly father.  The family would also like to  thank the many friends and family members who offered their prayers during this difficult time.

The family would like to thank the nurses on the third-floor unit 5 at Seven Oaks Hospital, Doctor Codlee, Seven Oaks Hospital Urgent Care nurse Ryan and the many nurses and doctors in the MICU at St. Boniface Hospital.  Rita was treated with care and compassion for which the family is truly grateful.
