Rita Hopkinson passed away peacefully on June 7th, 2025 at Scarborough General Hospital with loved ones by her side. She treasured her large family, predeceased by her sisters, Lorraine (Renee), Alice, Barbara, Margaret and Ruth. She will be missed by her sisters Donna, Joan and Brenda, her brothers Bob, Bill and Jim. Nieces and nephews, too many to count and her many close friends. Her cats Buttons and Jackson were lucky to be dearly loved, and she was just as lucky to have them by her side. She shared many laughs with her friends who she played cards with. She met weekly with her friends to share meals, where they were able to enjoy each other's presence.

Although she has passed, she will be fondly remembered by her kindness and generosity with her time. Her laughter and the love that she brought into the lives around her will remain with us forever. Rita will be missed, but held in our hearts.
