RITA L. WALTERS
It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we announce the passing of Rita L. Walters (Josefczyk) on November 22, 2024, at the age of 76. Rita passed away peacefully at her home with her beloved pets and husband in Maynard, Ohio.
Rita was born on June 11, 1948, in Wheeling, WV to Stanley and Florence (Shrieve) Josefczyk. She met the love of her life, her best friend, and husband of 55 years, Lanny “Waldo” Walters.
Rita is survived by her husband Lanny Walters, niece Leigh (Kull) Alexander, great niece Kimberlee Kafana (Jay), great great niece & godchild J’lyse Kafana and her fiance (Josh Crawford), godchild Amanda (Haught) Theobald and family, and many more loved ones and loyal friends.
In honoring Rita’s final wishes, no service or memorial will be held at this time. She wanted only to return back home to be with her husband, fur babies, Gracie, JLo, Janis, Lily, and Ozzy, and family, until they meet again in heaven.
A celebration of life will be held at a future date in the field across from her home sometime in the summer of 2025, friends and family will be notified on Rita’s Facebook page.
Rita wanted everyone to remember to “Live, laugh, love, and have fun everyday like it’s your last.” Arrangements are entrusted to Toothman Funeral Home, St. Clairsville.
