Not sure what to say?

I cannot believe or even comprehend how much I miss you?! I think about you everyday and I notice that you still visit me, from time to time.

Rita will be dearly missed by all who knew her. Rita once told me it was her work with the 3M LGBTQ employee resource network that mattered more than anything else throughout her 42 yr 3M career. I can sincerely say she had a strong impact on me, 3M, and anyone else that knew her. Her legacy lives on.

Rita had a huge impact on the LGBTQ community both inside and outside of 3M. She will be dearly missed.

Dear Rita, gone too soon. Always an inspiration, sewing missions, LGPTQ ally work, work-work. So glad she retired early and had that extra time with family and life. Gratitude.

We will do our best fill your big shoes in this family. With sad hearts we are smiling as we cherish your memory. Hugs and Love.
