I am honored to have been Rita's neighbor and friend. Over the last couple years, she confided in me of her struggles, but also of her strong faith in Jesus. She prayed constantly for her family, and only wanted Paul and her girls to follow Jesus in their lives and she knew they would be allright. She was a fine example of a daughter, wife, mother, sister and friend.

I will always remember her smile as she waved to me and said hi on her last day. I know she is smiling in Heaven now, she is with her Lord and Saviour forevermore.

I know Rita is at peace and pray for peace for her family.

Dear Family,



I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Rita, was a very special person.

We will truly miss her. I know that she is with the Lord at this very moment. And she is having the time of her life. Along, with alot of family that have gone before her.

As long as we have hope in Jesus Christ we have everything.

We know that we will soon be together, reunited when Jesus returns. But, until then I pray God's strength for you.

"Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not unto your own understanding."

We will be praying for you.



Love
