I was very sorry to hear of Rita’s passing. It was such a treat when I first met her, and I felt very fortunate to spend time with her during my visits to Antigonish. I enjoyed her sense of humor and she was very kind and welcoming. It was great to see the photos throughout her life. She will be missed by many!

My Deepest Sympathy to Rita's Family,
When someone dies we are filled with memories of that person. When I learned about Rita's death I began to reminisce about the days in Big Marsh. Rita and her Sister Helen would stop at our place on their way to school and there would be time to pick a few apples. Meeting up with her then was something I enjoyed. In later years I always appreciated a chance to say hello.
In Prayer and Sympathy

You are all in my thoughts at this sad time. May she rest in peace.
Sincerely, Garry Fidler

Archie, Kelvin, Carl, Marguerite and Gertie. My deepest sympathy to each of you on the passing of dear Rita. I remember , many times, going to your house after school and getting delicious cookies . Rita, Rita Benoit, and my Mom Mamie, had many good times together, and shared tons of laughs, they used to get more treats on Halloween , then all of us put together
Rita, was a lovely lady, she was kind, caring, and always had time for a chat anytime.. I know there is nothing harder than losing your Mom, I still miss my mom after many years and think about her every day.
Please accept my sincere sympathy, and remember the memories, as memories are something not even death can take away. I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers, and again I am deeply saddened for you all.
