Rita Fleming Obituary

Rita C. Fleming, 93

North Grafton - She ran out of things to do.

Rita C. (Kasper) Fleming passed away peacefully on Saturday, August 8, 2020.

Rita is survived by her daughter, Sharon Anderson of Millbury; two sons: Edward Fleming and his wife Lynne Norcross of Northborough and Robert Fleming and his wife Nancy of Manchester, CT; four grandchildren: Valery, Jonathan, Christopher, and William Fleming; a great-grandson, Maxwell Magliaro; and many treasured nephews and nieces.

Rita was born in Worcester, a daughter of John and Agatha (Kacevich) Kasper. She was pre-deceased by her husband Edward L. Fleming in 2006 and her ten siblings: Genovefa, Joseph, Anna, Rosalie, John, Vitie, William, and Peter Kasper, Theresa Vaskas, and Veronica Borezo.

She was educated in Worcester schools and was employed in numerous local businesses.

Being with Auntie Rita was always so much fun. She enjoyed her life to the fullest. And she made you have fun too. I enjoyed every single moment I got to spend with her. I'm so grateful to have had her in my life. My heart is sad for all of us. We lost a great lady. Soar with the angels. I'll miss you.

I never had the chance to meet Rita. However, her son (Robert) was a neighbor of mine and he and his wife(Nancy) were so helpful to me and my family. Bob sorry for your loss. God Bless ❤
