I am a fan of Rita /Williams and want to invite her to join us as a member of the Peninsula Volunteers comprise of women who help Seniors stay in our community regardless of their station in life through our housing program. We do meals on wheels as well as the Rosener House our day care for frail elders and the Little House our facility also in Menlo Park for active seniors. Welcome aboard Rita we are proud of you and your recognition so well deserved.

I went to high school with Rita, she and I were on the school newspaper staff together. Rita has always been a star in everything she has pursued. Fresh out of university she blazed the train for women on Congressional office staffs, then in print and broadcast journalism. She deserves every accolade sent her way. I'm proud to be her friend for over 50 years. Congratulations, Rita, on another well-deserved award.
