of Bigelow, AR
June 2, 1965 - March 17, 2026
Rita Gayle Sawyer, 60, of Bigelow, Arkansas went to be with the Lord, March 17, 2026. She was born June 2, 1965, in Little Rock, Arkansas to Gene and Mabel Ritter.
Rita was preceded in death by her parents, one sister, Mickey, and two brothers, David and Le.
She was an avid outdoors lady who loved hunting, fishing, being with family, but most of all, being a Mimi was her pride and joy.
Rita was a dedicated worker, serving over 20 years as a Logistics Supervisor with Cooper Industries and then over another 10 with Premier Services in South Haven, Mississippi.
Left to cherish her memory are her two sons, Blake McClure and Luke (Elizabeth) McClure and six grandchildren, Jonathan McClure, Collin McClure, Landon McClure, Myles McClure, Case McClure, and Wyatt McClure.
There will be no services at this time.

I am so sorry to hear of Rita's passing. I moved to Bigelow my senior year and we were graduates of 1983. Rita made me feel as if I had been with the class all my school life. She was always so humorous and fun to be around. My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you celebrate her life and the wonderful memories you hold for her.
