July 18, 1944 - February 16, 2021

By the time you read this, the Princess will have left the Castle.

Rheta wanted to thank all that came to see her over the past year.

She leaves behind her cherished husband Dennis, the four sons to which she was devoted, Scott, Brent, Jay and Kyle, and their wives, whom she loved as though they were her own daughters.
And she treasured the endless happy times with thirteen of the world’s best grandchildren.

She shared her gifts of humility and generosity with her nine beloved siblings, and a great number of nieces and nephews will remember her loving spirit.

Proud of her humble beginnings, she was always welcoming and giving.  Rheta believed that the country was the best place to raise children, and was no stranger to hard work both in her career as a homemaker and her involvement with the family businesses.

Some of her fondest memories included backyard pool parties and summer weekends at the family cottage hosting many great friends and relatives.

As her boys became more independent, she and Dennis traveled throughout the world creating great memories with loved ones.

She nurtured the joy and love of her grandchildren, and annual family gatherings at Great Wolf Lodge were enjoyed by all.

Rheta was deeply loved and her compassion will live on.

Cremation has taken place. For those wishing to express condolences through a donation, Rheta's favourite charity was Operation Smile Canada.

The family will be holding a private internment ceremony at Parkview Cemetery on Saturday.

It is with heavy hearts we said goodbye to our loving Dad on Tuesday February 16 at the age of 96. 

Dad was the man who played 3rd base without a glove, fell in love at first sight, and treated everyone with respect. 

He is now reunited with the love of his life, Pearl Betsy, who predeceased him in 2019.  He will be greatly missed by his children Wayne (Fran), Ron (Dianne), Dave (Judy), Keith (Mary Jane) and Susan (Warren) and his grandchildren and great grandchildren; Kelly, Ryan, Sean, Kiera, Evan, Kennedy, Jeffrey, Daniel, Codie, Amanda, Michael, Greyson, Aven, Jack, Paisley, Samantha and Katelyn.

It is with profound sadness we announce the sudden and unexpected passing of Gordon Fulton. 

Gordon was the younger brother of James Fulton (Katherine), cherished uncle of Cheryl Fulton, Jesse Fulton (Nicole), Tristana Reid (Jonathan) and Great Uncle, in so many ways to Louis, Sawyer and Leo of Ontario as well as Valerie and Melissa in California.

Gordon was retired from the Waterloo Inn where he enjoyed many years of continued friendship while working there.  He had a passion for film, music, art and fishing and he was a walking encyclopedia for them all.  He always loved sharing a new artist or film he discovered and enjoyed being on the water fishing or hanging out with his amigos. 

We will miss you vacationing in Mexico; stogie in hand, listening to jazz in the garden.  Your great nephews will miss your goofy antics, unexpected crazy t-shirts arriving randomly in the mail and the continuous supply of doggie treats for all of our pups.  We will forever miss your smile, laughs and big heart full of kindness.
 
We love you to the moon.  Vía con Dios Gordo.
 
Gordon’s Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.  If you would like to celebrate Gordon’s life with us, please email his nephew, jesse@365sports.ca.
