Not sure what to say?

Mrs. Gabel was my teacher at Audubon Elem. I remember her for reading stories to us after lunch that I really liked. King of the Wind, Rifles For Waite, Anne of Green Gables. And her daughter visited our class and gave us a biology lesson. Thank you for such a great 5th grade experience, Mrs Gabel

The Gabel & Gipson Family--My sympathy to you in the loss of dear Rita. She was so sweet and caring and such a great lady. She was always special to me and so was John. I pray the good memories of her will be of some comfort to you and that The Lord will give you peace and comfort.Love, Cathy

To the Gable Family,
Your family will be in our thoughts and prayers. Our parents Ann & Rodney Petty were great friends with Rita & John. There must be one heck of a reunion going on up there. Sincerely, The Petty Family

I feel so lucky to have known Granny Rita. Although living with her this past year had its moments, I miss every one of them. While she was not my grandmother, it certainly felt that way. I knew she loved me like her own, and not like someone that married into the family. She is surely missed, but we know she is were she wants to be and have so many wonderful memories that will live with each of us forever. "The key to a happy marriage ... "

Granny Rita was an amazing woman. I am blessed to have been apart of her life. I also cherish that my daughters were able to know her. She influenced many of the attributes that make me who I am today. I will always cherish that she was my Granny!
Love,
Michelle

Gabel and Gipson Family,
I just read about your loss. Ms. Rita had the most beautiful smile. Charles and I always enjoyed seeing John and her at the different Advocate functions. Such a beautiful person I know she will be missed by her family and all her friends.
Sincerely,

To our entire family:

We wish we could be there. Grandma loved life and her family with a rare passion, and we can all hope to live such a fullfilling AND full life. You all are in our thoughts and prayers.

I was sorry to hear of Mrs. Rita's passing. She was a wonderful, kind person. I remember visiting the Gabels when I was young and admiring her wedding portait. I always thought she was a beautiful bride and that's how I wanted to look when I got married. I have no doubt that is how she looked when she met Mr. John at the gates of heaven! God bless the Gabel and Gipson families for their loss.
