With deepest sympathy to the Family of Rita Rose.

May the Hearer of Prayer (Psalm 83:18) give you strength, courage and peace in your time of sorrow (Psalm 65:2). And may you always cherish the wonderful memories of time spent with her.

Rita added joy to my life through art. I said, "I cannot paint," and she said, "yes you can." She was a terrific artist and teacher, and I will always remember her with love for encouraging me with great kindness.

May God comfort you and the family in your sorrow.
