Rita Ann Salisbury

Rita Finger Salisbury a native of Athens Georgia died peacefully February 15th at home in Bluefield WV after a long illness surrounded by her dogs with Santa the yorkie laying on her chest.

She was preceded in death by her mother Carlene Anderson Finger, her father George W. Finger Jr., her brother George Finger III.

She is survived by her best friend and roommate Milly Vidot, her brother Ray Finger (Carol), sister-in-law (more like a sister) Dianne Finger, niece Lindsie Finger Moore (Kirk) nephews Jeff Finger (Holly) and Tyler Finger (Mallory). Great nieces Lucie, Mollie, Thea and great nephews Sloan and Laken.

There will be a celebration of life to be held at Lord and Stephens East in Athens Georgia Monday February 26th 6-8pm.
