the daughter of the late Leon Chabot and Hilda (Paquin) Chabot.

Kapolchok. The couple moved to San Diego, CA, and then relocated to
North Edwards, CA in 1958. Dick passed away on December 27, 1993.
Rita worked as an accountant at Edwards Air Force Base, receiving many
certificates and honors over the year. Until recently, she visited friends and
family in New England. She loved her life and her desert home, and
resisted pleas to return to New England. She said she didn’t like the trees!
Rita is survived by many nieces and nephews, and grand nieces and grand
nephews, cousins, and friends. She loved to laugh and instantly brightened
the mood of any room she entered. She will be missed by all who knew her.
