In 1943 she married her soul mate and best friend Raoul Labbe and the couple resided in Topsham to raise their family. Rynell was a mother who always put her children first, there wasn’t anything that she wouldn’t do for them. Family was very important to her and spending time with them was always top priority. In her later years she enjoyed playing cards, reading and crocheting. Every Sunday she went to lunch with her daughters at her favorite place, FAT BOYS, ordering a Royal Burger Basket, as she was a creature of habit and her family found it very difficult to change her mind. She also loved spending time “up north” in her hometown of Eagle Lake, things won’t be the same without her, she will be sadly missed.
