Happy birthday in heaven rita we love you and miss you

I'm sorrowful to say goodbye to my childhood friend. Rita was bold, strong, kind, thoughtful, and beautiful and I knew it the day I met her when we moved into Carnation Street in 1975. 
She knocked on our door, my mother opened the door to this gorgeous little girl. Rita asks "do you have any  children?" Mom replies "yes I do, a boy and a girl." Ritz asks " how old are they?". Mom replies "Craig is 9 and Leigh is 5". I was on the otherside of the door, and worked up the gumption to came out to say hi. Rita says, "oh we're going to be friends".  Just like that!
Bless her, my 1st friend in a new neighborhood and just before starting Seymour Heights Elementary, she was a savior I didn't know I needed. So many memories I'd like share but this one was special just like her. I will cherish them all and wish I could say goodbye in person.
My sincere condolences to her family and friends,  Rita will be missed greatly by everyone who had the pleasure of meeting her. 
Love Leigh 💗

My deepest condolences to Rita’s husband, son, and family. I was lucky enough to work with Rita and Concord for many years. She always had great stories about her family and her love for them was evident. My boys are around the same age as her son so we would swap stories. Rita was always positive and happy.  My her family find comfort in the wonderful memories of a happy life filled with love. 

I have known Rita and her family for many years and am heartbroken for her family and her husband and son. Such a wonderful family.  Thoughts are with the Bavluka and Dobie families during this most difficult time. May the passage of time ease the current pain but always hold close to your heart beautiful memories of Rita.

I will miss Rita. We had fun at work and I will miss her sense of humour. She and I used to order coffee from Amazon and split up the pods. It was a small thing, but we looked forward to and had lots of laughs when the order would come in. She happily would take all the strong ones :)

Rita talked about her family all the time and it was clear she loved them dearly. Wishing my condolences. 


Rita was a wonderful person filled with love and laughter who was taken far to soon.  May you find peace and comfort in the many memories you hold in your heart. Our deepest heartfelt condolences to her family. 

Love,
Tina, Phil, Spencer and Taylor 

Many happy memories of laughter, joy and adventures we shared.  I miss you so very much and wish I had more time with you.  Sisters Forever and Always.  I will see you in Heaven some day.  Until then I know you will be watching over Us as our Guardian Angel.  Our hearts are broken and there is an empty space but remembering all the wonderful times we shared will help ease the pain.  Rest in Peace Baby Sister.  We Love You!!  xoxo  Debbie, Gord, Jacob

Condolences to Rita's Family and close friends. I had the pleasure of working with Rita. She was always bubbly and positive. She had a can do attitude and never shied away from a new challenge or opportunity. Rita would often talk about family and close friends.
RIP 

Deepest condolences to Rita’s husband, son and family.  I had the honour of working with Rita for a number of years at Concord and am very sorry to learn of her passing.  She was a very sweet, kind, caring and compassionate woman.  Her love of her family was always first and foremost.  

I am so deeply sorry for your loss as Rita was such a lovely person. Always a big smile, even as a child. Please accept our sincerest condolences.  Hoping the wonderful memories help at this difficult time.  Michelle (McDonagh) & Ken Lim
