RIBBLE, Colleen Joan
Passed away peacefully at the age of 72 in Toronto. Beloved wife of Robert (predeceased).
Loving Mother of Barbara (Richard); James (Vivianna); Cathy; Deborah (Gord). Proud Grand Mother of 14 and Great-Grandmother of many. Jackie-O will be greatly missed by many nieces , nephews, relatives and friends. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to Canadian Cancer Society or Lung and Heart Associations.
“Our Circle of Family and friends have lost one of our few remaining matriarchs. Colleen will be remembered for her class, her style and her strength “ Jackie-O”. She wasn’t afraid to give her opinion in her soft spoken voice which always made us chuckle and silently cheer ( you go girl).
As we all move forward without you, my hope is that we are able to carry ourselves with half the integrity you held. You were the embodiment of a strong women and I was proud to call you aunt. Love always”
Kathleen
