Rita Marie Williams

we lost our dear friend Rita Williams, who passed away on December 7 after a brave and unwavering battle with cancer. Rita was a force-a big personality who said exactly what she thought without apology, yet always with kindness. She was funny in the most pragmatic way, and I can´t count the number of times her sharp comments and unique perspectives on life had me cracking up.
Rita was a brilliant and savvy attorney, and anyone who spent even a few minutes with her could see how deeply dedicated she was to her work. And her greatest joy in life-her whole heart-was her girls, Samantha and Bailey. She was so proud of the beautiful, strong, and incredibly smart women they´ve become. She was overjoyed to be part of Samantha and Jesse´s wedding in August, and so grateful for the love that surrounded her that day.
I feel truly blessed to have called her my friend. I will miss our conversations about life, our talks about our kids, and the honest way she saw the world. I hope she´s with Norm now-at peace, without pain or fear.
She´s in perfection now.
