I worked with Sandy Evans and she sent me a email to let me know that Rita had passed away. I was surprised as I know she was my age and I consider that to be young. I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Rita for probably 12 years or so sending out shipments through her department. I don't know if I will be able to make it to the viewing, but I am going to try. Your family has my blessings.

mom-mom i love you so much and i will miss you. i loved going places with you,helping you out and spending the night with you. i liked talking to you and telling you my future plans. ill never forget the time we were driving in the car on the way up to the lorien and we were talking about what i want to major in and how worried i was because i really wanted to graduate. well im going to do what i can no matter how hard it gets and fulfil my dreams, all of this will be because of you and your help. as i do this you will be righ there with me maybe not phsyically but emotionally. i also remember telling you about my relationship problems and you told me to follow my heart and keep looking forward and take every oppertunity that comes so i can meet my goals. well mom-mom thats exactly what im going to do. i love you and i will never forget you.
