Recollections & Sympathy For the Family
Post Comment
Although I hadn't seen Rita in well over 20 years, I never forgot who she was. She was a sincere friend of my mother and the wonderful mother of a friend of mine; her son, Gary.

I express my sincere condolences to the family; especially Gary. Rita will continue to be missed for quite a while.
