So sorry to hear about Rita's passing. We are just finding out about it as we were away. Your obituary is beautiful and I am pretty sure Rita has already found my mom and their card game is surely accompanied by boisterous laughter.

Dear Daman and Daria and families,
We are sorry for your loss. Your mom was a lovely lady. When I told my mom of her passing, she was tearful. Your mom was my mom's maid of honor and a very dear friend in their younger days.
I extend our sympathies on behalf of my mom and our entire Kovalich family.
