It is with deepest sympathies we announce the sudden passing of Wesley Ritchie who passed away on January 28th, 2026 at the age of 67. 

Son of Freeman and Marion Ritchie. He was the beloved husband of Robin Leslie and loving step father of Kaylin Leslie. He will be missed by his sister Bonnie Richard and brother-in-law Larry Richard, his niece Samantha Siedlecki and husband Tom and children Tristan and Jackson Siedlecki, his nephews Ricky and Jared Richard. 

A celebration of life will be held on Saturday February 7th between 1 - 3 pm at Beechwood Cemetery (280 Beechwood ave. Ottawa Ontario). 

For those that wish to do so, please consider making a donation to The War Amps - Wes faithfully donated each year. 

The family wishes to thank the first responders, Ottawa General Hospital, and the Beechwood Cemetery staff for the compassionate care.
