Dan and I were just sharing stories of Rita and dad last week. Be assured she is remembered with love

Dan and Kathy

Rita was a very good companion for my dad.
We truly loved her and are glad she came into our lives.
❤️

My deepest condolences to Jack, Jill and family! I was so very saddened by the news of my Dear friend and customer passing, Rita brought sunshine to my life for many years.  She was a witty and complicated woman at times. Remembering the smiles, laughter and sometimes tears. Also remember what we said every week after her appointment, we never said goodbye as I told her many years ago that was to final so  instead we said see you next week "GOD WILLING AND THE CREEK DON'T RISE"  I will miss her smiling face.  RIP my friend! Heaven definitely gained a beautiful soul. I hope you and Jack are dancing again in heaven.  💐

I was looking in the obituary for a friend's Aunt and saw Mrs. Knapp's obituary, I grew up down the street from the family.  My sincere condolences to Jack and Jill and their families.

We send our deepest sympathy to you all. Rita was a special woman. She always spoke her mind, but shared her thoughts with kindness and a smile. We have many happy memories of times spent with her, and are forever grateful for how happy she made Jack. I’m sure he was there to welcome her with the angels and Jesus.  Sending hugs and prayers of comfort. Dan and Kathy Agnello and family 

So sorry to hear of the passing of such a great lady. As I told Jack, she was everybody's mom!!  She always welcomed everybody, always treated you like you were special and she always made you feel valued. She made the world a better place. 

Rita always had a kind word and a huge smile. Her actions were always impeccable along with her appearance. 
Her love for family and animals is carried on through her children.
RIP dear Rita.
