Rita loved to cook, especially at holiday time. She loved Halloween, when she would dress up in scary costumes to frighten her kids!!
Rita was very active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints church, serving in a variety of capacities, several times as Primary President, and as Relief Society President. She worked in the Provo temple for many years, and served a mission in the Philippines in 1991 and 1992.
