CASSIN, Rita R. Apr. 4, 1923 - Mar. 27, 2014 After a lengthy illness Mom was taken into the hands of the Lord. She grew up in Lac La Biche, Alberta, and served in the army as a nurse during World War II. She nursed and looked after the many combat casualties that returned from the battlefield. In 1946 she married her army boyfriend, Doug, where they returned to civilian life. Mom then put the same effort and care into raising three boys Douglas Trent (Connie), Dale Cameron and Dennis Wayne (Carol). She was a wonderful homemaker and later returned to nursing at the Grace Hospital in Winnipeg to make things easier for her family. She always put family first and loved them unconditionally. She gave her heart to family and friends and those were her fondest memories. She loved crafts, gardening and making meals for her family. Besides her boys and their wives, Rita is survived by granddaughters Tannis Dawn of Red Deer, AB and Shaina Kristel of Lloydminster, Sask, and two great grandchildren Paige and Conner. We love you mom.
