Rita Faye (Day) Booker

Rita Faye Day Booker, age 67, of Cumming, Georgia passed away suddenly around 12:30a, February 5, 2022.

Rita is preceded in death by her parents, W.V. & Evelyn Day, her brother, Howard Day, her in-laws Herbert and Barbara Booker, and brother-in-law, David Booker.

Rita was a loving wife, mother, daughter and sister. Rita would light-up a room when entered with her smile. She always had a hug for you when she saw you and when she left you, always telling you she loved you, and she didn’t say that just to have something to say, she really meant it. She adored her many friends and especially her family. Her family always came first.

Rita was diagnosed with Parkinson’s about 6 years ago, and her struggle with this awful disease is now over.

Rita is survived by her husband of 49 years Dan Booker, and her daughter Tracey Booker Lester, her husband Kevin Lester, brother Albert/Jane Day, sister Beverly Anglin and sister-in-law Brenda Day, as well as several nieces and nephews who also survive.
