Rita enjoyed camping and fishing with her family. She was also a talented artist in both oil and acrylic painting and was a great storyteller. She was a devoted member of Our Lady of Unity (Sacred Heart) Parish, Kansas City, KS, for over 71 years and was the sacristan for over 20 years. Rita will be remembered especially for her deep faith and humor. She had a way of being able to see the presence of God in the ordinary, and she became a beacon of God’s presence for everyone she met.
Rita was preceded in death by her husband, Gordon, parents, Wendell and Margaret Ohmes; siblings Margaret Helen Ohmes, C. Dorline Lawrence; Wendell Ohmes, Jr., and Albert Ohmes.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the family will hold private services.
Memorial contributions may be made to Benedictine Sisters, Mount St. Scholastica Monastery, 801 S. 8th St., Atchison, Kansas.
