Dear Sharon, Gary, and Sydney, our prayers and thoughts are with you.  Rita was always quick with a remark and then have everyone laughing.  I will never forget when she and Mary worked at the Low Cost bakery at Craycroft and Broadway in Tucson.  They were a riot selling bread and cookies!  Or driving to Sierra Vista in her Beetle to take us to Girl Scout Camp!  Her quick wit and humor will be missed by my entire family and many more.  Heaven is now a happier place!

Dear Sharon, Gary, and Sydney,  Our thoughts are with you!  Your mom was such a fighter, and passed on her tenacious spirit.  We feel so blessed to have her daughter and granddaughter in our lives--she has given us a great gift.  Love to the three of you from Lene, Ingrum, Owen, Cody and Gwinna.

I lived across the street from Rita when she lived on 45th St in Tucson. Rita was the best neighbor I ever had, always ready to lend a helping hand and a kind word.  My deepest sympathy to Sharon and her family.  Sharon your Mom will forever be in the hearts of the people's lives she touched.  God bless you.

Rita and I go back a long way.  I remember all of our morning coffee's together at my house.  My heart goes out to Sharon and her family for your loss.  Rita was a joy and a lot of laughs in my life.  She will be missed.

Rita was a good friend, and the best neighbor I've ever had. I have missed her these past few years, and now that she is gone I will miss her even more. I will take comfort though, in the knowledge that she is once again free to be herself. My deepest sympathies to her family and friends. May you find solace in time and your many loving memories.

Good bye, my dear friend--I have many memories of the good times we shared over the years.

I have so many sweet memories of Rita. She will be missed. I know she is now enjoying one shopping day after another and her KFC.  

                                          Love, Her other daughter. Jan
