Olive M. Richard

Peacefully at the St. Joseph’s Hospital, Ontario on November 21, 2018 of Marie Olive Richard aged 92 years.

Olive was born in St. Peter & St. Paul, PEI on November 22, 1925, the daughter of Avie and Rosie (Perry) Richard.

Olive was a little lady with a big heart. She loved the island but like many of her generation left to find full time employment in Ontario. She went to Toronto with her dear friends - the late Mr. & Mrs Benny Martin. She moved into Roncesvalles Village and worked at St. Joseph's Hospital for 30 years. She became well known in the Roncesvalles Village - everyone knew her because she had that lovely PEI charm and wit. She brought joy and laughter to everyone she met. A service was held in Toronto and now Olive is being returned to her beloved Prince Edward Island to be buried with her predeceased family at St. Simon & St. Jude Roman Catholic Cemetery.

Funeral will be held Saturday Dec. 1, 2018 at St. Simon & St. Jude Church, Tignish with funeral mass at 11 AM. Celebrant Rev. John Molina.

Arrangements entrusted to the West Prince Funeral Home.
