There are not words to express what an incredible mother, friend and person Rita was. As a young girl she made me feel like I was so special. I remember thinking how lucky Suzanne was to have such a wonderful mother. Rita was so interested in everything we had to say and everything we did...her interest was so genuine and she always made me feel so loved. Everyone who knew her would agree that she was the closest person on earth who epitomized a saint. I am so sorry to all her children who will miss her so much....As you know she is waiting for you in Heaven and praying over you for health and happiness. I feel a void knowing Rita is no longer here on earth and such sadness that a truly selfless and loving woman is no longer among us. Rita will be in my heart and in my prayers forever.
