She was predeceased by her parents, Andrew and Margret Petras and her sisters-in-law, Noreen, Rosemarie and Lorrie.

After graduating in 1955 from the Bible School of Gilead in South Lansing, NY, she married Tom and both served in the ministry work in Vancouver, Calgary, Lethbridge, Brandon and parts of Winnipeg. Reta was a very happy person. She was an excellent cook and enjoyed feeding her family and friends. She loved flowers, bird watching, embroidery work and writing some poetry. Her greatest joy was comforting others with the Bible's promise of everlasting life on earth in a restored paradise with Christ Jesus as reigning king. - Revelation 21:3, 4.
