Obituary
Send FlowersNovie (M.) Ridley, 24, passed away peacefully at home on February 20, 2022, after an ongoing battle with graft-versus-host disease. She was diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukemia at age 14, which she battled three times with bravery and dignity. Novie was a deeply cherished sister, daughter, and friend with a passion for helping those in need, as well as a great artist with an eye for creativity. Her easygoing nature led others to feel comfortable and secure in her presence. She had a very kind and tender heart with limitless love to give. Her life was filled with a courteous love for animals and a fervent dedication to the fight against childhood cancer, while her laughter, humour and warmth brightened every room she entered. Novie is survived by her loving Mother and Father, Audera and Sean, her grandparents Louise, Gerhard and Ellie, her brother and sister, Derrick and Ciara, aunts Diana, Kristine, Patricia and Georgie, Uncle Holland as well as many cousins and friends who loved her dearly. Funeral services for Novie will be held on Tuesday, March 29, at Emily Murphy Park. Attendees will need a negative Covid test and be fully vaccinated. In addition to Novie's service, a commemorative event will be held for her family and friends. Details about the memorial event are still being finalized. As a gesture of sympathy, in lieu of flowers, the Ridley family requests that donations be made to Novie's favourite childhood cancer charity, Arms Wide Open Childhood Cancer Foundation.

Hey girl. It's pretty much your birthday. I miss you and the hole that is left in my life from were you are supposed to be is felt every day. I hope that I am making you proud. I wish we could celebrate your birthday together. But I hope I can still make it special. I miss you every second, best friend.

I think of you every day, you were the best thing to happen for a long while. You were an absolute angel when you were down here with us, and you've now joined the rest of them in the skies above. This last year has been really tough without your smiles and advice. I love you so much. I always will.

Nova my absolute darling - I miss you so much. Life hasn't been easy at all since you've left us. In fact, it hasn't gotten any easier since the day cancer decided to rob you of the rest of your life, much less your life as a whole. You were always so sweet and cheerful to everyone and about everything, no matter what it was. You always glowed yellow, and you could say that's because of your radiating positive energy or our inside joke of "I like pee". I love you, as do so many others. I wish...

Nova, sweet Nova.
There is so much I wish that I could say to you. Two being that I love you and I'm sorry. I think about you all the time. If I would have known, I would have been a better friend to you. I play it over and over in my head. You never asked for much but you deserved more than anyone in this world could have given to you. I wish that we could have another chance. Just to tell you that you are loved and important. I'm so sorry. I truly hope you weren't in too much pain....
