• Notes

  RICE, CATHERINE April 6, 1945 - April 13, 2021 On the morning of Tuesday, April 13, 2021, Cathy peacefully slipped away after a brief illness. She is survived by her sister Joan of Ladysmith, BC and her brother Robbie of Madoc, Ontario. She was predeceased by her siblings Raymond, Gary, Wendy, and Marty, and her parents Hazel and Graham. Cathy grew up in Chesterville and Winchester in Eastern Ontario, and lived most of her adult life in Toronto and Scarborough. From an early age, Cathy was her own woman: strong enough to not feel like she had to "play by the rules". Even in small-town Ontario in the 1960s and 70s, she entirely rejected the conventional woman's role. She was single, she worked, she loved to play sports, she was competitive and felt no compulsion whatsoever to "be nice". A role model without realizing it, she had a beautiful smile and a totally infectious laugh - when she laughed you did too, even if you had no idea what you were laughing about. She was an excellent bookkeeper and inveterate organizer, and was involved with women's groups and in her tenants' community: participating in fundraisers; organizing socials, meals, games; assisting others; whatever was needed. She will be sorely missed. At Cathy's request there will be no memorial service. Her remains will be interred with those of her sister Wendy in Winchester, Ontario. Donations may be made to the Michael Garron Hospital Foundation where Cathy received excellent care over the years and in her final days. --Published by Toronto Star on Apr. 17, 2021.
