I have precious memories of weekends spent at the Flynn Family farm throughout my high school years. One of the benefits of my friendship with Monica was enjoying the generosity, humour, energy & care of Rita. Her faith, positive outlook & interest in everyone around her impacted my life in ways I continue to recognize & appreciate. Rest well Rita, you will be missed!
