Teresia Myra Ritchie (nee Mills)

Teresia passed away peacefully at the age of 78 on November 25, 2024 at the Roozen Family Hospice Centre (Pilgrims Hospice Society). As a retired pharmacist, she loved spending time with her family, watching her grandchildren play volleyball, doing Sudoku and cheering on the Oilers. She also enjoyed going to the lake, travelling to Hawaii and watching sunsets.

She is lovingly remembered by her children Kerry (Len) and Shane; grandchildren Jelina and Colby; stepchildren Lara and Tamara (Donald); siblings Jan, Kevin (Julie), Farley (Shannon) and Shelley (Kelly); as well as many nieces, nephews, family and friends. Teresia was predeceased by her parents Victor and Almira; husband Dave; brother Larry; and grandson Alex.

The family would like to sincerely thank Dr. Tiffany Wells and her team at the Cross Cancer Institute, as well as all the nurses, doctors, staff and volunteers at the Roozen Family Hospice Centre for their compassionate and respectful care. Teresia requested to have a private celebration of life, which will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Alberta Cancer Foundation or Pilgrims Hospice Society.
