Dear Rita, my Mother and I are with you. I know that words can't help much, but I hope they give you strength. You and your family, and of course Bob are in my prayers. I'm very sorry for what happened. Max Boehner

my sympathy to the family. Carter family music listeners know of this man through Janette's, autobiography, where she spoke so highly of him. very sorry for your loss.

Rita and children; My prayers are with you. Remain strong and rely on the Lord and His grace to carry you through.

Rita: Brian and I send our deepest sympathy to you. I know there are no words to help, but we pray for you and your family. Please be strong.

Attn: Rita - I am so sorry and I pray God will help you to get thru this tragedy and the strength to carry on as you have done after losing your Mother and other famly members. I think the fact that you are now able to welcome the show indicates you have your Mother's determination to carry on the famiy legend and I'm sure your dear husband that worked so hard behind the scene would want you to carry on and just remember you have a world full of people that share in your grief and loss that are pulling for you.I mailed you a package to your Hilton's address but had the last number of your zip code wrong and the Hilton's post office assured me it would get there but would just take a bit longer. Remember your husband left you a part of himself in two loving sons so try to be srong and carry on for them as well as your many Carter Famiy fans that want to see the Carter Famiy Legend carry on. God Bless and be with you all. Love Betty Dodrill

Dear Rita,
You and your family
will remain in my thoughts
and prayers
not only through
these difficult hours,
but also in the days and weeks
to come.

With Deepest Sympathy,
Birgit Saehrendt
