Rita Anne Hulbert, 85, passed away peacefully at home on July 23, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.
Born in Kettering England, Rita lived a full and vibrant life marked by her adventurous spirit, love of family, and joy in life’s simple pleasures. She especially enjoyed gardening, square dancing, and traveling while creating lasting friendships and treasured memories wherever she went. Rita’s warmth, kindness, and sense of fun touched the lives of all who knew her.
Rita was preceded in death by her first husband, Richard “Dick” Hulbert; partner, Colin Tranter; mother and father Arthur and May; brother Teddy; sister, Kathleen “Kacky”; and her brother-in-law, Johnny.
She is lovingly remembered by her son, Faron; her daughter, Terry (Paul); along with extended family and many dear friends.
