I will always remember the funny little things your Mom and I got up to! The laughs we had and her stories she shared with me. It was an honer and privilege to have been able to spend the years that I did with here. I think she helped me more than I ever helped her.
A great lady that will never be forgotten.

As Rita had written above about herself and my Mom got up to, I remember one day when Rita brought my Mom back to my place after they visited my Dad. The two of them came walking around the side of my house looking for me as I was setting up a toilet on my front lawn to bother the neighbours. My Mom did not believe Rita at first when she told her what I was doing. My Mom just shook her head and laughed. She always accepted my strange humour and chuckled alongside me. I will miss doing things to see her reaction. My Mom had a very open and unopinionated mind. I will love you Mom forever. Thanks for my life.
