Uncle Dave, Bill, Jack and Tom and to all your families,
I am so sorry for your loss. Aunt Rita was a joy in my life growing up with her sincere smile and hugs and giggles. A lot of wonderful memories of her with of our families. I am sorry I did not make the wake. I remember all her sisters and seeing the love in her family. The love between Uncle Dave and Aunt Rita was priceless. Two old souls. I am glad I had stopped in and visited with Uncle and Aunt Rita for a few hours. It was great to be back in the kitchen talking with both of them. I am sorry I am not there. Too many complications here in Michigan.
My prayers are with all of you and beautiful Aunt Rita as she takes her place in heaven with the Lord and with all whom have gone before her.
From my lips to God's ears, God speed.
Love your niece and cousin,
Judy McNamara Radler
