Born in Newark, Rita graduated from Frank H. Morrell High School and later from Kean University with a degree in graphic design. Her obituary remembers her as a "beacon of artistic passion...
"Rita's creations became tokens of her affection, as she dedicated time to crafting personalized gifts, delights, and baked goods that revealed her deep care for her family and friends. Known for her compassion, she frequently volunteered her time to cook and provide meals for the homeless."
