Not sure what to say?

Vergie wanted me to light a candle for Rita, and let you all know how sad we are to hear of Rita's passing. She was such a big part of our lives. Dad loved to tell stories about her, and so did mom. The summers when she would come back for an extended stay, and everyone would get together and tell jokes and stories, are the most wonderful memories. Rita and Hazel were priceless. The love she had for her mom was very special, and you children also. The Sunday before she passed, I was...

Rita became a good friend when we worked together at William Alan Real Estate. She could light up a room just by walking in with that huge smile and positive attitude. I thought the world of you Rita. Rest in peace sweetie. ❤

I am shocked to see this I have been grooming Tinkerbell, Mrs. Buttermore’s dog for years now. I am so unbelievably sorry. She was one of my favorite clients to see walk in to the shop. Always delightful and full of zest. I am at a loss. I am hoping Tinkerbell is ok as well as the rest of her family. My sincere condolences.

Such a sweet woman. I knew both her and Dave from my days at carrier. We would go tongue house after softball games. Wonderful people. A lot of fond memories.

Rita, one of my true best friends. If only we had more time together we could of done great things. She was happy, carefree and loved her family. What a talker and we laughed a lot! She brought great joy to my life. I will always miss her

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

I will miss you so much Rita glad to have met you in our connect group

Rest in Peace Rita. Thank you for the warmth and kindness.

I loved being around Rita any chance I could get. We loved when she would come to Nebraska to visit. Our family would get together and tell stories of her days on the farm with my dad. He adored Rita. We also loved when any of Rita’s family, our cousins , came with. We love you all so much. I will always love and miss Rita. Marie Winkelman Scott.
