The sacred:
This coming weekend, we have arranged for services at Holy Family Catholic Church in Clarkston (corner of 11th St. and Chestnut).
- Rosary, Friday May 23, 7 pm
- Funeral Mass, Saturday, May 24, 10 am
And the secular:
On Saturday, June 7, we will have a "Celebration of Rita's Life" at the Asotin house. This will begin at about 1:00 pm and continue until the party runs out of steam. Peg, Bill and I are hoping to have mementos of Mom on display at this second party--we know we won't be able to get them together in time for this Saturday--and you are welcome to bring yours.
All family and friends of Rita are invited to one or both of these events. We would really love to have you come and share your memories and tall tales about our tall Mom.
If you would care to make a donation in Rita's name, that would be lovely. Peg, Bill and I suggest the Hospice organization in Clarkston. Send it to: Tri-State Hospital Hospice, P.O. Box 636, Clarkston, WA 99403

So many great memories, and yet so many things left undone--fishing on the Snake River, visiting Asotin. Aunty Rita was such a wonderfully important part of our lives, always there when we were growing up, always happy, listening to all the famiy news, attending family events. We'll be there for the funeral, loading into Michelle and Otto's van,those of us from the coast, maybe two vans by the time we collect ourselves. See you soon. Love to all.
