What a wonderful woman Rita was. She was a great Mom, wife, grandmother and friend. Years ago when I needed a friend the most Rita was there. We had gobs of fun spending time with Valley Riding Club at jamboree's and camping trips. I'll never forget when Rita had started her own team and her boys were on the team. We had what was called the balloon race, a rider would ride to a barrel that had balloons on it and blow it up and pop it then head to the finish line so the next rider would do the same, At a jamboree at Greenwood park some one put condoms on the barrel. When the boys, Jim and Brian, were laughing about the condoms being on the barrel Rita said "How the hell do you know what a condom is?" We just about busted a gut laughing about that. She fought her battles and now she's at Peace. RIP our friend we'll love you forever. Joe and Kathy Cooper.
