I knew George and Rita from the Blossom shop then church then visits. I always enjoyed our visits. He liked to tease and give me a hard time (which I loved) but he was always compassionate and kind when it came to life's ups and downs. He reminded me of the men in my family. Rita was always there by his side. Ignoring us when we were being ornery and joining in when we weren't. She is a very special person. I wish all of God's blessings and comfort to Rita and their family.

I first met George and Rita at the blossom shop, then church, then just visiting. He was always a character and loved to tease and give me a hard time. But he would also show his compassionate and caring side by trying to make sure I was alright as I went through life's ups and downs. He reminded me of the men in my family. Rita was always there by his side, ignoring us when we were rowdy and joining in when we weren't. I wish Rita and George's family all the peace and comfort God has for them. My prayers go out to you all.
