Rita was a very talented woman, with a generous spirit that loved to create joy for others in many ways. As a multi-medium artist. she left behind a legacy of artwork; skies and beaches were her favorite. She also lovingly crochet blankets for everyone in the family and anyone who needed warmth and comfort. She especially loved crocheting tiny baby clothes for newborns coming home for the first time. She was a skilled seamstress; sewing clothes, table clothes, napkins whatever one needed. Cooking was one of her favorite pastimes, if Rita cooked for you it always came with a piece of love.
Rita will be missed daily. Her love, laughter and quirky ways will be in our hearts forever.
We thank her for everything she gave us through her life, bringing so much more love to the world than she ever received.
Rita... Mom, Sister, friend, aunt, grandmother and great grandmother was a true gift to us all.
