Rita Richardson Herda age 66, closed her eyes here on earth and awoke in the arms on Jesus on Monday, August 21, 2023.
Rita was a proud mother, sister, granny and friend and had artwork all over the house to prove it. When she wasn’t watching the grandkids, she liked to do crafts, especially making dreamcatchers and keychains. She was the friendly face behind the counter at the Marathon gas station and her family’s business, Little George’s before its closing. She loved Ocean City in Maryland and disco dance nights with her girls. Rita, better known as granny, ole’ woman and Remes, left a huge hole in the hearts of her loved ones, but have peace knowing she’s with Jesus, waiting for her family.
A special thanks to Jason Mullinax for leading Rita to the Lord.
