To Rita’s family and friends,
We were so saddened to learn of Rita’s passing. Rita was a valued employee of the New York District US Army Corps of Engineers for over 35 years and was respected and loved by all who knew her. Whether making her famous soda bread or helping co-workers with a difficult issue she was always there for us. We remember hearing of her Surf Club adventures and was always impressed how she could get home from a party in the wee hours of the morning and only be an hour late for work – a feat that our younger office members could never replicate. We hope that she was able to enjoy the last years of her life and the retirement that she so richly deserved. May she rest in peace.
Office of Counsel
US Army Corps of Engineers, New York
