Rita grew up in New Jersey and spent much of her early adulthood traveling the country before becoming a long-time resident of Webster, TX.
Rita dedicated much of her career to the space industry where she was heavily involved in the protection of national assets, then worked and retired from a civilian position with the League City Police Department. In her free time she loved to spend her nights playing bingo together with her friends.
