Peter wrote a sympathy message

“I did not know Rita had passed away earlier this year. Rita and Ron lived next door to my parents in the 1950's in Sherbrooke Quebec. When I was about to attend Laurentian University I stayed with Rita and Ron for a few days to find a place to live near the University. The Garafolo family are a wonderful family. I send my late condolence to everyone in the family. Rita was an amazing woman with lots of energy and kindness. Max and Marjory always talked highly of Rita and Ron. Peter Salvas”
