Rhea Katherine Becker, Passed away peacefully on April 13, 2024, in her 82nd year, in her hometown of Woodstock, Ontario—the same place where her story began on December 10, 1942. A beloved mother, sister, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Rhea's warmth and kindness touched the lives of everyone around her.

Rhea's life was one of commitment and passion, both to her family and her work. She was a dedicated employee at the Sentinel Review, where her diligence and warm personality made her not just a colleague but a friend to many.

An avid knitter, Rhea's intricate creations were a testament to her patience and talent, pieces that her family will cherish forever. Her love for bird-watching reflected her appreciation for nature and the simple joys of life. These interests were more than hobbies; they were the ways in which she expressed her love and care, weaving warmth into every stitch and finding peace in the quiet company of nature.
