Thea Evelyn Ritchie was born on the 24th Auguest 2023. Thea Evelyn sadly passed away peacefully in our arms at Acorns Children’s Hospice on Friday 15th September 2023. She was a fighter right til the end, giving us extra time and memories as a family of four to cherish and we couldn’t be any prouder to call her our daughter. Although a short life, we were insistent on making sure every moment counts and for Thea to experience as much love as possible. We only wish more of you could have met her but we knew her time was short and precious and wanted to amerce ourselves in our bubble of four with Rupert and enjoy that time together. Thea has taught us to live each day and celebrate each moment. She will be forever in our hearts 💕💕

This page is in dedication to Thea and to help raise money in her memory for the amazing charity Acorns Childrens Hopsice who cared for Thea during her last few weeks and looked after us during such a difficult time. 

The name Thea means “Goddess of light”. So look up to the sun, the moon, the stars and think of her. Or simply light a candle below on this tribute page to remember Thea. Her middle name means “wished for” and she was so wished for, she was so loved and will be loved always. We will miss you every single day and we wish your time with us could have been longer.
