Born in Dunmore, Pennsylvania, she was the daughter of the late Joseph P. and Anna Voytek. Her husband of fifty years, Major General John J. Remetta passed away March 2, 1992. Rita moved to Cayuta, New York, to be with her daughter Rita Tague Carmony (James W.) in 1996. She also has a daughter, Carolyn Ann Flores (Lee) in Trinity Florida.

Rita was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She took great pride in her family, her home, and her gardens. She offered her time and was active in many church activities. She loved the Florida sunshine but always had a soft spot in her heart for the changing seasons of the north. Rita and John would make several trips between the North and the South every year. Rita was a classy dresser and had many outfits for every temperature change! A funeral service will be held on Tuesday, October 25th at 11:00 a.m. at St. Mary's Church in Watkins Glen, NY.
