Rita's Story: The Supreme Art of Comprehension

She is an artist who speaks not with pictures and paint but as a writer with words, feelings and emotions spanning a childhood and a lifetime of love. Beautifully told, Rita's story examines the gifts of family and love set against the loss we must all feel when losing someone dear to us. Her life-long aspiration to be an artist is revealed as Rita takes us artfully into the past and leaves us wanting to hear more about her life with Henry and her family. To know Rita better. And to understand the incomprehensible. Go to Rita's Story.
