Rita Mary Brown

Rita was born August 6, 1919 in Akron, Ohio to parents George and and Gertrude (Lang) Jenior. Rita had been a parishioner at St. Joseph Church for many years. She was an excellent quilter and seamstress. Rita would feed anyone who came to her door and loved playing cards. Most of all she loved her grandchildren.

She also leaves her loving grandchildren: John Brown, Matthew Brown and Tasha Adkins, as well as great-grandchildren: Tori and Nicholas Adkins. Rita is also survived by her sisters: Martha Norton, Mary Huth, Cecilia Miller, sister-in-law Helen (Tony) Heppe, daughter-in-law Peggy White and many loving nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband John Hugo Brown, son Thomas E. Brown, her brothers: Francis and Bernard Jenior and sisters-in-laws: Katherine Bormet, Mary Weinhart and Ann Troyer.
