Read MoreI remember Rita from the church I was attending In the early 1980's. My son was diagnosed with leukemia at that time. Rita not only said that she would pray for us, she also would send cards of encouragement throughout his chemo. I still have them and hope she knew how much they meant to us. My condolences to the family.

I am heartbroken to learn of Rita´s passing. I met Rita when I became a Pioneer girl in the mid 70´s thru church. I spent alot of time with her as my Pioneer mom, many experiences on the farm with the rest of her family. She was kind and loving and always had a way about her.. gracious and humble. My condolences to the Yoder family.
