Rita Anctil, age 92, of Regina, Saskatchewan passed away on Thursday, September 2, 2021. Rita was born March 19, 1929. Born to Adrian and Alice, Rita is survived by Terry, Ray, sons Michael And Robert, and grandkids Ben, Carina, Stephen, Niko, Vayda and Tristan, nieces and nephews Ken, Deb, Gary Theresa, Kim and Linda.
Rita was a smart and compassionate woman. She struggled as a single parent against poverty and prejudice to raise two successful boys. She loved cats, birds, Nintendo with the grandkids, and lunch with her friends. Intelligent, stubborn and independent, she lived life on her own terms. We celebrate her strength and perseverance.
Flowers are gratefully declined. Rita loved animals, cats and birds in particular. If you wish, donations to the Regina Humane Society would be appreciated.
A graveside service for Rita will be held Wednesday, September 29, 2021 at 11:30 AM at Riverside Memorial Park Cemetery, Regina, Saskatchewan.
