Obituary of Gerrit Reitsma

Reitsma, GerritIt is with deep sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Gerrit Reitsma on Friday, April 10, 2020 after a courageous battle with cancer. He leaves behind his loving wife Connie, son Randy (Alice), step-daughters Susan (Jean-Paul) and Wendy (Cam) and son-in-law Rob. Fun loving Grampa to Jennifer (Chris), Melissa (Jeep), Ashley (Matt) and Maya. Great Grampa to Hailie, Noah, Joshua and Shain. Cherished brother to Eddy (the late Marian), Dick (the late Isabel) and Anton (Faye) and sister-in-law Pat. Predeceased by siblings Henk (Anne), John (Blanche), Bert and Akke (Albert) and step-daughters Erica (the late Herb) and Marie. Uncle to numerous nieces and nephews. Gerrit will be remembered for his infectious laugh, sense of humor and incredibly hard work ethic. We would like to thank Dr. Michael Fishman of Arnprior Hospital for the tremendous care and support he provided as well as the nurses and staff from RPCT and LHIN. A celebration of life will be held at a later date when family and friends are able to gather. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Arnprior Regional Health Foundation.
