RIP Rita 🙏 🌹 💐
La joie et le bonheur qui t’attendent au paradis te ferons oublier les douleurs que tu as subi sur notre terre. On ira te rejoindre un jour.
One of the finest ladies I have been honored to know and work with for over 20 years. A heart of gold – soft and pure – and a mind which never stopped thinking about how to do things better and and help others. When we disagreed we never argued – Rita and I would ask questions until we were certain we understood each others position and reasoning and then we figured out how to proceed. Always a discussion among friends who saw things slightly differently.
It was a great pleasure to have known and worked with Rita over the years. She has given much to our industry and colleagues and did so from a place of caring and sincerity. My deepest condolences to the family and friends. She will be missed!
I remember the first time I met Rita was at an IIBLP conference in Miami, many years ago. We attended many conferences together after that and worked together on BAFT committee assignments. She always impressed me with her detailed recall of letter of credit rules, laws, and court decisions and her ability to apply this knowledge and share it with others. I will miss her.
OUR GREATEST SYMPATHY
Goodbye Rita, I will think of you often.
Goodbye, Rita – I will think of you often, with warmth & love.
