My prayers are with you at this time. Rita and I shared a first name during our years at SJA and she often visited me when I was in college. Although we had not seen each other in many years, she has often been in my thoughts.

Dear Jennifer, Steven and Michael, It saddens me more than you know about the loss of your mother. Rita, your mom was a very special person. I have always admired her dedication to her children throughout the years. I think it helped frame me as a mother watching her loyalty and devotion to all of you. I spent many a great nights over at the Upson home with all of you. Rita always welcomed me into your home and made me feel part of the family. She will be missed by all of you, however, think of all the wonderful memories you have of her to get you all through this difficult time. Love, Tracey Couturier

What a beautiful picture! I will always remember Rita for being very passionate about her family, her morals, and her opinions. She would never compromise herself for anyone or anything, which made you respect her. I feel like I grew up with Rita....always telling us to behave, shaking her head when we weren't, ironing her clothes to get her out of the house to work (hee,hee), and listening to her words of wisdom. Noone loved her family deeper. She will be missed. I can still hear your chuckle, RIta. I wish you peace and eternal happiness.

Jennifer, Scott, Michael, Alissa, Steven and Melissa, All of you held a special place in your mother and mother-in-laws heart. She fought so courageously to stay with all of you. She enjoyed every minute she spent with you and your children. She was special to me and I will hold all of the memories I have of her forever.

Rita was my roommate in nursing school in Niagara Falls. I also had the pleasure of living with the Farchione family while finishing school. Rita was like a big sister to me --always watching out for me. Although we had lost touch over the years, I will always remember her fondly.

Our deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother/grandmother. It is always so difficult to lose a cherished loved one. Rita and I (Joan) worked together for many years at Harrison Radiator Div. in the Medical Dep't. Rita always had a funny "quip", even when the going got tough, which made the days/nights easier to bear. I know she will be sorely missed by all. Norm and Joan Pearson

Dear family of Rita, my condolances to all of you on Rita's passing. I remember Rita well, we were classmates at SJA. She sang the Ava Maria at our wedding in 1961 at St Anthony's. Still remember that beautiful voice echoing throughout what ever venue she was singing at. May her memory live on in your hearts forever. Fondly, Rosie Seefried Corrigan

I was so sorry to learn of Rita's passing. After meeting her at Delphi and her being the most compassionate and caring nurse we spent a lot of time together as she would not let me go back to work until she knew I was alright. Visiting with Rita was such a blessing and joy She always spoke of her children with such pride. Just wanted to let you know your Mom was a genuine treasure. May the Lord be with you all.
