APTEKMANN, Rita Vera

Rita Vera Aptekmann

Born 10th December 1926 Mannheim Germany
Passed 24th July 2020 Salt Spring Island BC

Beloved wife and soul mate of Leon for the past 60 years.

Rita was a one-of-a-kind woman, an extraordinary champion for the environment and animal rights causes locally on Saltspring, within British Columbia, Canada, around the World. Rita loved the hiking club and many adventures in the Americas, Europe and Africa. Her kindness and generosity touched many people’s lives, along with a spectacular smile and an incredible sense of humor. She will be sorely missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the BCSPCA or Lady Minto Hospital, as per her wishes.
A heart too big for this World.
Rest In Peace.
A celebration of life to be notified in the future.
