Not sure what to say?

Retta was my placement person soon after I moved to Atlanta in 1984. She found me temporary office assignments more than once. So long ago, I can't recall how many. Anyhow, we became good friends as she eventually invited me over to her house and made us lunch! Fond memories of her. If I had lived in a house, I would have invited over to my place to visit. Eventually, I obtained a full time job in office work and we lost touch, unfortunately. Last week her name came to mind, so I did...

Retta was a good friend in choir and I visited with her several times in Lithia Springs at Christmas where we would go shopping at a cute store that was a house there. Fun times to remember and she was a good listener and friend. Thank you for touching my life and so many others! RIP my friend!

Retta was quite a lady. She lived a full life and it was a pleasure to get to know her. I helped her out while she was still in her home in Lithia Springs, GA. We also attended Church together and I went with her to listen to the Choir she once performed in. She shared many pictures and stories with me. Lisa Daniel Lithia Springs, GA

My thoughts and prayers are with the Morton family in this time of grief. May the memories shared help you cope through this difficult time.

Many happy memories singing with Retta. May she rest in peace.
