In Loving Memory of Raida Pita:
June 28, 1929 - October 6, 2023

Raida Pita was a truly remarkable woman, a selfless example of courage, grace and unconditional love. She was generous with her time, her heart and her resources, always living to intentionally share these precious commodities with others.  Both family and friends adored her and held her up as an example to which we will forever aspire. 

Raida was a dreamer, a rebel, a bohemian at heart. We remember her as both a remarkable artist and an incredible woman that lived for, loved and sacrificed greatly for family. We remember her quiet yet strong love of her Lord and Savior. We remember a friend who touched our lives with her enduring love and indomitable spirit. 

May her memory continue to inspire creativity and passion in all of us just as she did throughout her extraordinary life. This day and with all our tomorrows, we honor the remarkable life lived by Raida Pita. Her soulful creations of songs, videos, art and sculptures as well as her lifelong love affairs with her children, extended family and friends will live on forever. Love never dies, and Raida embodied it with every creation and with every relationship.

Celebration of Life
 

 

Raida Pita chose marveling at the beauty of life over preparing for death.  In honor of her choosing to live vibrantly rather than prepare for the end of life, our family has chosen to respect her wishes with a simple memorial gathering for immediate family instead of hosting a larger, more formal celebration of life as we did for her 90th Birthday.  

 

 

For her 90th birthday, Raida’s family celebrated her life by surrounding her with those she loved and featured her original music and art. The evening was a gloriously produced lookback, a retrospective of the matriarch’s nine decades of history. Present for the celebration of her life were over 250 adoring family members and friends that were immersed that evening in her artistic creations on display alongside a live orchestral performance of her original compositions. To commemorate that evening below we have posted some of the assets from that celebration to once again honor her legacy in grand fashion.

This video was made by her loving son, Mario, in tribute to the legacy of Raida Pita as a loving mother and extraordinary artist. The video includes images of family moments and her beautiful artwork that accompanies Mario’s original music that he wrote for her 80th Birthday.
