Obituary for Penny Ann March

Penny Ann March

April 10, 1952 - May 14, 2023

Penny March (n. Racicot) passed away suddenly on Mother’s Day and is sadly missed by her son, Tyler, daughter in law, Gita and her two grandchildren, Darcy and Gemma, her sister Arlene, nephew Aaron, brother Gerry, and her partner Serge as well as extended family and her many friends.

Penny was born in Wawa Ontario and moved to B.C. with her parents, Ann and Arnold Racicot when only 4 months old. She grew up in Richmond and lived much of her life there playing in the fields and dyke close by as a child and later running a landscaping business with her partner, Serge. Penny had boundless love for her grandchildren and spent much of her later years enjoying her time with them.

Penny’s passion for caring for animals began at a very young age and continued throughout her life. At one point, she created a sanctuary for cats called Forgotten Felines. Through this, she developed very close friendships that lasted the remainder of her life. These friendships were very important to her and her family is thankful for the support and love they provided her.

This kind, gentle and loving woman will be sadly missed by her family and many friends.
