I am comforted to have such a kind and caring Aunt. She touched a lot of people, raised a large wonderful family. Growing up I always looked forward to the visits that were hosted by Auntie Rita and Uncle Willie, there was always plenty of cards, fun, food and most of all laughter.
I am sorry for your loss during Christmas.
Rita was a wonderful woman and dear friend to our family. She came to visit us in Arizona and we will always cherish the time we spent together. She was the best friend of my mother, Grace Mullins. We will miss her dearly. Deb & Tony Costantino
