OKARTA Mourns the Passing of Founder Ron Rhine

It is with sadness that we inform you of Ron Rhine’s passing. As many of you may know he was the founder and inspiration behind OKARTA which remains the only branch of Alberta retired teachers outside of Alberta.

Ron led a full life and in retirement was often the driving force in many organizations. He passed away on January 12. A Memorial Service will be held 2:00pm Saturday March 14, 2020 at

St. George’s Anglican Church – 3690 Brown Road, West Kelowna, BC.

We last saw him on Remembrance Day, always the proud veteran.

Thanks for all you’ve done Ron. Rest in peace.

Your friends at OKARTA.
