Q: How did you meet Rita? A: I have worked with Rita over a decade at Perry Point.We shared a lot of memories. Rita made my daughter an outfit for the Hartford County farm fair, and my daughter won The prettiest baby class with the outfit she made me. Rita accompanied me to a surgery on her own time when I had no one to take me.Rita will surely be missed as a friend and co-worker.
