Rita Julian Lassere, 96, passed away peacefully on September 14, 2019 with her family by her side. She was raised in Louisiana, but resided most of her life in Houston.
She met her sweetheart, Earl Lassere, and they began their "enchanted love story". She was "Earl's Everything" for 80 years. Rita enjoyed cooking and was the "hostess with the mostest". She loved to knit, crochet, sew, and garden. She enjoyed playing solitaire and going to her weekly Bridge Club, where she often won.
Rita loved traveling with Earl in their motorhome and spending time at their lake house in Livingston. She was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother who will be dearly missed and cherished forever in our hearts. Rita is preceded in death by her son, Robert Lassere; her parents and three siblings.
