With great sadness we announce the passing of Rita Margaret Garside (Nee Ellis).
Beloved Wife of Peter Cockerill, Mother to Mark and Paul, Grand Mother to Zoom, Ace, Morgan, Charles and Abel.
After a long and courageous battle with Parkinsons, she fought it to the end and passed peacefully surrounded by family.
Rita was dearly loved, and she will be greatly missed by all that knew her.
As a skilled Artist Rita loved colour and light, so if you are able to attend her funeral please wear something colourful and/or creative!
No flowers by request - instead please consider giving a donation to her Charity.
