It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Rita Catherine Bielawski on Wednesday, November 15, 2017 in her 73rd year. Loving wife of Michael for 53 years.

Preceded by her parents Mary (Blank) and Victor Kuiack, sister Eleanor, brothers Zigmund, Clarence and Adolph Kuiack, brother-in-laws Zigmund Kutchkoskie and Leonard Yaskolskie. She was affectionately known for her bright smile and positive outlook. Rita had a gentle spirit, unsurpassed strength and was a devout follower of Christ. Rita enjoyed baking with her grandchildren, planting her flower garden, solving puzzles, watching the news, and living in Barry’s Bay. Whether it was a brief chat while doing her shopping, a long phone conversation, lunch with friends or attending a family gathering – Rita loved people.
