So sorry to hear of Rita's passing. I recall her as a kind and cheerful figure in my childhood. We lived next door and used to play out with Morag and Alan, as well as other kids in the Merse. Once I was a mother myself I would frequently find her of an afternoon having a cuppa with my mum. My kids would be there and Rita never failed to give wise input if there was an issue with one of them. Much loved and admired lady. Will be sadly missed xx
