She met and married the love of her life, Emil Gosse, September 3, 1949, in Kaukauna, WI. Following their marriage, they eventually settled in Seymour, where she worked with the school's food service and supervised the production of student lunches in the public school system. She involved herself in numerous activities and community services including Girl Scouts for 17 years, past President of the Legion Auxiliary, Outagamie County Veteran's Council, Seymour Homemaker's and Beecher Lake Association. She was voted Seymour's Outstanding Citizen in 2005. Although Rita was involved in many activities, her favorite was the Seymour Historical Society, the Seymour Community Museum and Music in the Park. Many visitors and groups touring the building were greeted and given personalized tours by Rita though the facility. She was deeply involved in raising funds for the upcoming building project.
