Rita (Charest) Danese and Roger Forbes
Photo dated to November 2002. This was taken in the ground floor condo in Leisure World, California, where Rita and Roger lived. In the background is one of Rita's quilts. In her later years, Rita made quilts both as her hobby, and to sell or give as gifts.

This condo was owned by a Mrs. White. Rita had been her caregiver until Mrs. White's death about 1990. As appreciation for Rita's care, Mrs. White granted Rita use of her condo for the remainder of Rita's life, only requiring Rita to pay the monthly condo fee.

Rita's son Roger subsequently moved in and lived with Rita until Rita died 12 May 2012. Shortly afterwards, Roger moved back to Woonsocket, Rhode Island as Mrs. White's children reclaimed the condo.

Rita (Danese) Charest with Liberace and Two Friends
Rita (Danese) Charest with Liberace and Two Friends
Rita (Danese) Charest was a big fan of the singer, pianist, and entertainer Władziu Valentino Liberace ("Liberace"). Liberace once visited Rita in Pawtucket, Rhode Island and spent the afternoon with Rita and two of her friends. Rita later would say Liberace was one of the nicest men she had ever met.

Władziu Valentino Liberace (May 16, 1919 - February 4, 1987) was an American pianist, singer, and actor. A child prodigy born in Wisconsin to parents of Italian and Polish origin, he enjoyed a career spanning four decades of concerts, recordings, television, motion pictures, and endorsements. At the height of his fame from the 1950s to 1970s, he was the highest-paid entertainer in the world with established concert residencies in Las Vegas and an international touring schedule. He embraced a lifestyle of flamboyant excess both on and off stage, earning the nickname "Mr. Showmanship". Liberace was a long-time entertainer on the Las Vegas circuit, known for his elaborate costumes. After his death on February 4, 1987, his fans operated a museum of his many costumes, pianos, cars, and other possessions. The museum closed in October 2010, but as of 2019 the Liberace Foundation continued to award scholarships.

Rita was a huge fan of Liberace, and in 1968 had a chance to meet him at Warwick Musical Theater in Warwick, Rhode Island. From Left to right: Dorothy Palosso (Cousin of Rita), Comedian Fay McKay, Liberace, Rita (Danese) Charest
