Virginia Ella Rathwell Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on February 13, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Virginia Ella Rathwell (Ladysmith, British Columbia). Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Virginia Ella Rathwell to show support.

Though Virginia may no longer walk beside us, her memory will forever be enshrined in the fabric of the lives of those Virginia touched, a beacon of light guiding us through the darkness. In her absence, her spirit lives on — a gentle whisper in the breeze, a ray of sunlight on a cloudy day, a reminder that love knows no boundaries.

She was predeceased by: her husband Cal; and her brother Ken. She is survived by: her sons, Kevin (Sherri-Lynne) and Dwayne (Tara); her grandsons, Jordan (Megan) and Brenton (Larissa); and her sister Vivian. She is also survived by many extended family members and dear friends.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Mom's memory may be made to Children's Miracle Network or the Heart & Stroke Foundation of Canada.
