Rita, wife of former Rye town crier Rex, has passed away unexpectedly.
She had a number of falls recently (believed to be associated with Parkinson’s disease) and developed a chest infection.
She and Rex managed to see each other twice whilst they were in the same care home, Mulberry House in St Leonards – where Rex is now.

Sad news of the passing of a very nice lady, Rex and Rita lived in Cooper Road and their garden backed on to my Mum and Dads house in Lea Avenue.
My condolences to Rex and his family on their sad loss.
