I had Corey in kindergarten. I loved Rita. We have had so many laughs through the years. I looked forward to seeing her daily in the cafeteria. I will miss her so much and can't express how sad her loss is to everyone. I lit a candle at church and said a prayer for Rita and her family. Carol Mascia 💔

Rita always gave so much of herself. She always went beyond. She befriended my child and called her 'My Buddy". I just can't wrap my head around this loss. I expect to see her at work on Monday. I know we will all miss her and she is irreplaceable. But I am confident that I will see her again in the future, until then, we wait. With much love, Bambi

Dear Miss Rita, I will truly miss seeing your friendly face at Ridgeview. Both my students and I were always excited to see you at lunch time. We were greeted with a smile, and you made each child feel special by asking them a question about scouts, sports, or school. You joked right along with me while we were encouraging the students to try the broccoli, and spread the beautiful smile you greeted us with throughout the school. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and your family in this extremely difficult time. With Deep Sympathy, Miss Dowers
