Dear Rita, Anthony, Skip and Valeria,
Rick and I were sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I can not imagine the pain you have felt seeing her decline in the past years.
I remember your Mom always taking the time and interest in me and my family. Rita had a way of making everyone feel special. She had a flair in telling stories especially about her many trips.
I admire you for the time you spent in caring for her. May you find comfort and peace when you remember the good times and how Rita touched so many.
You and your families are in my thoughts and prayers and knowing that your Mom is with God will help ease your sorrow.

Love,

February 18, 2010

Our Love and Prayer go out to The DiMassa Family. We will never forget your Mothers Beautiful Smile. May God Bless All Of You.
Love and Friendship, Al,Annette and Family
