KETTLE, Rosalie-Anne - It is with deep sadness in our hearts that we announce the passing of our sister Rosalie, too young, too soon, on Friday, May 28 2021.
Rosalie was born on December 20, 1956.
She was faced with many challenges from the time she was born, but she overcame them all with the characteristic confidence that she could do whatever she wanted.
They said she wouldn't crawl.
She did. They said she wouldn't walk. She did.
They said she wouldn't make it to adulthood. She did. Her physical limitations rarely hindered her when she wanted to do something and she remained relatively independent most of her life.
She loved kids, cats, knitting, reading, the Leafs and the Jays – a big fan, like most of her family! Her nieces and nephews were very dear to her heart.
Rosalie leaves behind her broken-hearted siblings, Marcia (Mike), Frances, Howard and Charles (Joanne) and their respective families, as well as many aunts, uncles and cousins.
She will also be missed by her lifelong best friend, Mary Pat Russell.
She was predeceased by our parents, Ernie and Irene Kettle.
In Rosalie's memory, donations can be made to Diabetes Canada or to Easter Seals.
The family would like to thank the staff at Michael Garron Hospital, especially ER Dr. Cameron, ICU Doctors Brotherston, Fallis and Warner, the ICU nurses and RTs, especially Victor for their care, support and empathy.
Thank you to Jordan in Chaplaincy service. Interment will take place at a later date.
