Uncle Jim, I'm sorry to hear of Aunt Rita's passing. To me she will always be the most positive, upbeat and energetic person I've ever met. The time spent during the holidays and vacations will never be forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

It's so surreal to be writing this for my Aunt Rita. I still find it hard to believe she's no longer with us. Even though I had not seen her for many years, I always held and will continue to hold the memories I had with her close to my heart. Whenever I see an old, big tree I am reminded of our walks together when she and Jim would visit Clinton. I consider those long, nighttime walks to be some of my most dear memories I had growing up. I always loved spending time with her, and I looked up to her so much. I will miss her energy and spirit.

I am so saddened and shocked to learn of Rita's passing. Rita was a big part of my being hired at Corporate H.E.A.L.T.H. Plan. She was always so upbeat and bubbly and a 'force to be reckoned with.' She was such a pillar of strength and an inspiration to us all when she was going through breast cancer many years ago. My thoughts and prayers go to Rita's husband and siblings. May God bless you and give you strenth during this mournful time.

I worked with Rita years ago at Corporate H.E.A.L.T.H. Club. I will always be greatful for the opportunities and support that she gave me and I will always remember her for her smile. Like me, she was a true Anne fan! My prayers and thoughts are with the family.

Well I worked with Rita on trying to establish the Handy Band first with "The Media Group" and then with "Access 2 Communications, Inc." she was so full of life and wanted so much to establish this item for her brother. We took a trip to the factory a couple of times first to Stamford, CT and then to Steubenville, OH to get this program going and we where ready to launch it when the economy took a hit. She will be miss and Jim I am sorry for your lost and thanks for calling me and letting me know.

To Jim and all of Rita's family, my most sincere condolences on this sad and tragic loss. You don't know me, but I worked for Rita at the Corporate H.E.A.L.T.H. Club in Louisville back in 1993-94. When the company was forced to lay off some employees, Rita came up with an ingenious way to save my job: she worked out a deal with another dept so I could work several days for them and a couple of days for her! Otherwise I would have been laid off! I will never forget that wonderful gesture. I lost track of Rita after I left CHC, but I heard she had moved out west. May God lift you up and hold you close at this most difficult time. I lost my husband two years ago, so I know something of the pain you're going through. God bless and keep you.

Jim, I cannot tell you how sad I am on your loss. Everyone has pretty much said how I feel..I like to think that the ones we lose are on the wings of the Angels. Hugs, Lisa

I remember Rita and what a sweet person she was. May god hug your families every day and know she is in a better place. Our thoughts are with the Devine family as well.

Last year I had the opportunity to meet Rita at her home. Even though I was only there 2 1/2 days, it was very enjoyable. We drove up to the mountains- lots of sightseeing. Had alot of fun staying up late playing Aggevation. I (we) will miss you dearly!!

So sad to hear of Rita's passing and condolences to all of her family. We had the privilege and pleasure of seeing Rita on a regular basis in Louisville while Rita was living here and coming to our office for colon hydrotherapy. Our hearts and prayers to all!!
