    On behalf of the Gelineau family I’d like to extend our deepest sympathies to Rita’s sons. Our parents, Bernie & Dot, were great friends of Maurice and Rita. After the husbands passed from this life, Rita and Dot became good phone pals. Mom was a visitor to Rita whenever possible.
    Since all have left this world, We’d like to think that they are all together now in the next life, picking up where they left off.
    May you cherish all those wonderful memories that your Mother has brought into your lives.
    Terry Laabs, Bernie Jr. and Elaine Berthiaume
