Oh Warren… I am so sorry. Your Mom was one of the sweetest ever! The last time I saw her was just before Covid. She gave me a big hug and asked me to come with her to see your Dad who was in the hospital. Warren… she was one of those one in a million moms. My thoughts are with you and yours hoping cherished memories will offer you comfort.

Warren, I was so sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing. She was a very nice lady and a great friend. I always enjoyed our times together. She will be missed by all who knew her. She loved when you came to visit. We know she is in a better place. R.I.P. Rita.

One of the finest women I have ever had the pleasure of knowing! A very strong Christian woman who lived and practiced daily these beliefs. Rita was always caring and very sincere when she met you for the first time or knew you well. She was extremely competent in her work and determined to contribute in any way possible to make life better for her family, neighbors and the community. She definitely displayed that Maritime hospitality day in and day out! Yes she will be missed Warren but she is definitely in a better place now. Hopefully we will meet her again. Our sincere condolences on your loss; may God bless her and be with you during this difficult time.

Although I’m far away, I miss Rita and the conversations we had. I’m grateful for the visits I made, especially In 1997 when I went out with dad. He loved his visits to the Yukon and he loved being with his sister. ❤️
