It is rare to meet someone at 94. That makes the impact that Rita did. She became not only my mother’s best friend at the VNA, but also someone that I looked forward to seeing at each one of my visits. Rita was always so kind, full of compliments, and and made everyone feel loved and welcomed. You will miss her smile and her gentle spirit, but are so grateful that she is finally resting in the arms of Jesus. She is reaping the word rewards of a life well lived. God bless you Rita Mae, and thank you for being such a kind and loving friend to my mom, and bringing a smile to all you met.
