Dear Maureen & Mark and all of Mom Ritter’s family, my heartfelt condolences on her passing. Please know you are all in my thoughts and heart. I wish I could have been at her service to give you a loving hug and tell you what an awesome lady I thought she was. She was always very kind to me. I will always remember her beautiful smile with the twinkle in her eyes.
Marlene was a good friend of ours for over 60 yrs. We took many walks together, had coffee together and shared many happy times. ………..she had a very contagious laugh and a wonderful sense of humor. She will be dearly missed. Our deepest sympathy to all the family. Tom and Carol Gould
