Rita was a person of faith where church, confession, and the Holy Eucharist were fundamental in her Catholic beliefs. Her favorite television channel being EWTN. She was known in the family for her spaghetti sauce, brownies, hot fudge for sundaes, and homemade cough syrup. Her

cooking and baking were enjoyed by many. She loved musicals, comedies, and went to plays. Before going to CA she spent time with her nieces and nephews buying them gifts, playing games and just enjoying her time with them. She really enjoyed wholesome movies but had to rely on people as drivers when her health caused her to not being able to drive. She loved to read. She also loved Holy Water (particularly from Lourdes) and liked to gift it to family and friends. Rita was a sports fan, particularly Brewers baseball and Packers football.

Rita also enjoyed traveling. She liked driving trips around California to see sights and visit family. While on a trip to Washington D. C with Pauline and their mothers they went to the Naval Academy in style. The tour bus forgot to pick them up so they sent a limousine that took them to all the stops at the Academy. In 2003 she travelled to Ireland with her siblings Dorothy and Emil. A highlight was spending time at the Shrine to Our Lady of Knock where she went to Mass and received Holy Communion. She also enjoyed being in the town where the Quiet Man movie was filmed.
