“It is with a heavy heart and my deepest sadness, surrounded by her family and friends, Rita passed away peacefully and quietly on November 14, 2024.”
Rita, who was 60 years old, was a talented individual in her own right, known for her career in broadcasting and music. Based in Canada, she made a name for herself as a radio personality, captivating audiences with her warm voice and engaging personality. Beyond her work in radio, Rita also had a passion for singing and performing, frequently sharing her talent with her community.
In interviews, Jim Carrey often spoke fondly of his sister, describing her as a kind and vibrant presence in his life. The Carrey family, originally from Newmarket, Ontario, has always been close-knit, and Rita’s death marks a profound loss for them.
Rita’s husband, Alex, expressed gratitude for the outpouring of love and support from friends and fans in the wake of her passing. While the details surrounding her death have not been disclosed, Alex’s post emphasized the love and light that Rita brought to those around her, calling her a cherished wife, sister, and friend.
As the family mourns their loss, Rita is remembered not only for her professional achievements but also for her genuine kindness and infectious spirit. She leaves behind a legacy of love, creativity, and a life well-lived, touching the hearts of many who knew her.
Rita Carrey’s life and legacy will be honored with a candlelight vigil on December 7 in Ontario, Canada, surrounded by family and friends.
