I am so sorry for your loss. Rita and I were great friends in High School. I was so sorry to hear about her passing. You will all be in my prayers. In high school I was Blanche Schell.

My deepest condolences. Loosing a family member is never fun. But with one door closing, another is opened. Best wishes.

Rita was one of the funniest, kindest and thoughtful people I have ever met. When it came to any kind of function, from birthdays to funerals it was Rita who always organized and took care of everything. I used to always call her the social butterfly. Her love for animals of any kind was so unconditional. She was truly a follower of St. Francis. We will miss her very much. May God easy the hearts of her loved ones. Always in our hearts and prayers, Natalie and Peaches

Rita was a very special person. She always cared about her animals before herself. I work in the animal hospital that Rita would come to. All of us here are really going to miss her very much. I used to get a kick out of her when we were giving any kind of injection and Rita would always say "You know me Doc, I have to leave the room." There will definately never be another kind hearted person who looks out for the unfortunate as Rita. May God bless her family and her animals. Eileen Bittmann, Meisels Animal Hospital
