Rita Hallenbeck

Rita Hallenbeck, our beloved everything

First, a baby sister, looking up to your elder,

Next, a new mom, looking out for your babies,

Then the "World's Greatest Gramma", enjoying every single second,

And now we all struggle with the loss of you. We've all lost our best friend and it's so hard.

"The dark is light", is what you said and mom, I'm trying. I'm struggling, but I'm trying.

Watch over us and guide us, because the hole you left in all of our hearts is gaping as we take one day at a time, missing you in so many ways.

We love you and we will continue to try ~ in honor of you, our beloved everything.

Now, the newest angel and guardian for us all. You're going to be amazing at that as well.
