"Sometimes when we are considering an appointment with a medium, we are pressed with uncertainty about moving forward. Perhaps it is the angst of not really believing that such proof actually exists that are loved ones are still with us, but only living in another dimmension, or just the fear of the unknown. It is for this reason that I have included a handful of testimonials, from all that I receive each year. I hope they help you feel more comfortable about your decision." ~ Rita
Dear Rita,
Although it's been a couple months, I need to let you know how very important and comforting the reading I got from you on May 15th was - I take time often to re-listen to the tape I received to reaffirm the things we talked about. Comfort and strength is what I get when I listen again to the subjects we touched on - these resonnate in my heart and soul and give me the "push" to keep going forward. thank you!!
The picture of my spirit guide is awesome - he's hanging on my bedroom wall like family. It's a real sense of peace to know I'm not alone in spirit in this crazy world!
You description of my 2 ex-husbands both named Todd was dead on target - I can't help but laugh to hear an outsider/stranger describe their characteristics that I thought I was the only one to know! Your description of my own connections to them was also completely on target; I suppose I knew all along, but to have you put it out there in front of my face was healing. Too funny...more reassurance that I'm on the right path now.
Divorce and death is never easy and there is so much "what if" going through your head; now I can expend my energy where it needs to be, going forward.
I will refer to you to all my friends and family and loved ones who I think would benefit from a reading with you - thank you and your guides so much for taking on this field of work (in this crazy world)!
Sincerely,
Sheila Melton

Dear Rita,
We are writing to thank you so much for the time that you spent with us a few weeks ago.
We already had a strong "spiritual" belief before our reading with you. Your kindness, concern, and obvious communication abilities provided us with even greater proof that some of our loved ones haved crossed over and are now safe, secure and happy. It further proved to us that they are with us, and love us at all times and all places even though we are not always aware of their presence.
What you were able to provide us with has helped immensely in the healing, “moving-on” stage of our grief process. Knowing that our daughter, Molly passed on without any pain is the most important factor in helping us to move forward.
We deeply miss all of friends and family who have passed on but, knowing that we will all be together again, someday, is very helpful in dealing with the losses. We have enclosed a copy of the drawing that you did of Molly. Her likeness is obvious in many respects.
We look forward to another reading with you in the future, and again, thank you so much for what you gave us during the last one. We left with tears and laughter!
Sincerely
Doug & Karen Kimball

Dear Rita,
Thank you so much for the reading today. I can't tell you how much it meant to me that you were able to connect me to my son Martin. I was actually at his college with his best friends by my side doing some fundraising for his scholarship in his name. I feel so much better hearing from you that he died peacefully. I was always home at the time he died. I came home late from work that day to find Martin sleeping on the couch to then find out he was dead. I tried to do CPR and than the para medics tried but he was gone. He was so loved and was our shining star in our lives. As a single Mom he was the man around the house and just so full of love for all of us. He had epilpesy since age 16 but only seem to have 1 to 2 seizures a year and was on medication and was very well controlled. He died of sudden unexplained death in epilepsy. He was touched by angels in the weeks before he died and I believe he knew in his soul he would be leaving us. I miss him and cry for him alot. The grief for the last 8 months has been horrible. I don't know how to go on without him but I get through the day by the love of my girls and his friends. Rita I can't wait to see the drawing. Do you want me to send you photo's by email to see how it compares to what you saw. Your description to me was so him and the love part was so true. His legacy he left behind was one of loving everyone in your path like each day is your last. He was studing to be a broadway actor and his motto was "No Day But Today" as in his favorite broadway show RENT. I am surprised he did not have on a RENT shirt since his daily shirts were Broadway shows or Theatre.
Let me know if you want photo's.
Lots of love and thanks.....
Camille

Dear Rev. Rita,
I had a phone reading with you in August. You contacted my father and relayed numerous messages from him. The power of love and the healing that transpired that day was miraculous. My life was touched in so many ways by your compassionate intervention. I know you give God the "thanks" and I do as well, but without your help I could not have found resolution of twenty plus years of grief and concern about my father and his well being. You relayed information that only could have come from him.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
A Kindred Spirit,
Darlene Wayne

Dear Rita,
WOW! WOW! INCREDIBLE reading from my mom, SHIRLEY, today!! :):) Thank you so very much--it was great fun and so comforting to me to know all that she told you/me. I was on a high all day and smiling. I really needed to talk to her and truly know she was talking back to me. She has a very good sense of humor, not to mention style LOL!! I can hardly wait to get the spirit drawing--she is soooo funny-----with her green and gold top--actually, green is her favorite color!
I told my dad about some funny aspects of the reading, right after you finished. He looked kind of glum and serious and said it was remarkable and it really does sound like her. But that's as far as he would commit to saying. He seemed rather pensive after I talked to him about mom. BOY, I really hope he can open up somewhat to hear mom or let her contact him in a way he knows it's her.
I truly hope my mom can stop feeling that she has a broken heart about my brother.
WILL she ALWAYS feel this way??? OMG I hope not :(:( Well, anxiously awaiting the picture and tape--hey, maybe you can start a whole new art process by inventing METALLIC PASTELS to draw jewelry LOL! If your secretary is, in fact, reading this email, as I don't know if you read your own mail, PLEASE show this email to Rita for me--thank you very much.
WITH MUCH LOVE AND THANKFULNESS,
Linda

Dearest Rita,
I wanted to drop you a note in regard to the reading/drawing you did for me on May 18th at 10am. My name is Jennifer and I really want you to get this email!
To simply say thank you cannot put my emotions into strong enough words for you. You are fantastic! When I received the drawing this past Saturday, my mouth dropped, and my heart sang. You are truly unbelievable and so very gifted! Everyone should be blessed with the wonderful gift you allowed me to have.
The drawing of my Mark is spectacular!!!!!!! before speaking with you, sometimes I have felt silly, or like I was making things up in my head, when I thought I was talking to him myself. I believe so deeply in what you do, and it is so nice to have it confirmed in the form of his picture you drew for me.
I have so many questions yet to ask you, as I am sure everyone who has had a reading with you, wishes for more time and even more questions answered.
Thank you again for everything, and I will be calling on you again just as soon as I can. And now, if I may be so pushy, please can you tell me one more thing, what is the name of the man you told me I will meet at the beach during volleyball this summer. I am asking because I truly believe in what you have said. If you cannot answer that is okay.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
All of my best wishes for you,
Jennifer

Dear Ms. Berkowitz:
You did a phone reading for me on March 10th of this year. During your reading where you talked about my son, you mentioned that he was looking at the sun and the moon and trying to connect the two together. At the time, neither of us could figure it out, but after I got off the phone with you, I discovered that the attached picture which I have on my coffee table, bedroom, his bedroom, my office and in the billiard room may be what he was trying to tell me. As you can see, it is a picture of my son (which I believe he must have taken of himself when he was about 12) with the sun behind him and the moon directly above the sun. In fact, I was looking at the picture while talking with you and didn't make the connection at that time. I found this picture after we lost him in July. I had never seen it before. I made several copies and put them allover the house. In fact, I call it "Matt in Heaven". I have been wanting to write to you and send you the picture so that you could see for yourself.
Do you think this is what he was referring to?

Bob,
I am responding to this E-Mail pertaining to a visit which Rita Berkowitz took the time to visit my home on January 11, 2002. When I spoke with Rita, I indicated that my Son was killed and did not give her any detail on the cause of death. When I indicated this to my husband Norman that we were going to have a Medium over to the house, he did not believe in the Spiritual World, I told my husband to have an open mind and to see what would transpire.
Rita arrived about 7:15 PM that Friday evening, and as soon as she walked into the kitchen she truly felt alot of energy and warmth thru the entire house. She felt at peace and she could sense that we had alot of family members who have passed on to the other side.
We started with an opening prayer in the kitchen and from there she went into the family room, the first person she made contact with was Norman's Father, Rita described his father to a Tee and how he sat in the recliner in front of the TV set. She felt how Norman's father died, and she mentioned certain things that no one would know about. Rita had a message for Norman from his father, and told Norman that he was sorry that he did not say goodbye and that he truly Love Norman and that he wanted Rita to hug Norman from his Dad.
The next person to come thru was Norman's Brother Billy, and she was also able to describe the way Billy died. Also, she informed us that his Dad & Billy were really upset on who got the car, and no one new the story. Prior to Billy's death, Norman and I gave Billy a car which was 1995 Crown Vic in the year 1999 which had only 34,000 miles and it was still like new. His brother was just so happy. Five months later Billy died, and the same day one of the other family members went into the garage and decided to keep it, without even consulting us. We were truly upset with this particular situation, and we finally got over it.
Finally, the moment we were waiting for was our Son Brian and Rita could not express the way Brian died. She keeled over and had truly change she was shaking and could not discuss it. I new at that point I needed to inform Rita that Brian was killed on 9/11/01 on the Second Plane which hit the Tower - United Flight #175. My concern was who was there to meet Brian when he was crossing over, and she described this Elegant Lady and what she was wearing. I new exactly who she was and she had passed on 5 Months before Brian, her name was Grace. Grace lost her husband 5 months before her death, and that is when our Son made himself available to take her to the bank and also do errands. Brian would check on her once a week to make sure that she was eating. It was after Brian's death that we became aware of what he did. Grace would tell people that she had a special Angel and that was our Brian.
Rita proceeded to go into the different rooms and could not believe the spirits which were present. At one point our chandlier in the dinning room proceeded to Blink and dimmer and that was a gift from Brian our Son. Also, we heard voices in the background & she described a playful little girl around 4 years old in our living room and that would be our daughter Kathleen who also crossed over 27 Years ago. Rita was totally amazed with all of my family members from the other side, she said it was like they were at a party.
When the evening ended we concluded with a prayer in a circle and we hugged each other. Rita left the house and Norman and I sat and talked about what had transpired with the messages which was given to us. We were both elated and filled with joy and love. It was by far the best day we had since Brian's death. We could not believe the specific details that were relayed especially from Norman's father & brother Billy. It proved to us without a doubt that Brian was with his grandfather and his uncle Billy and that they are all around us in such a spiritual way. I have shared my story with special people.
On March 30 I sat with Rita and she shared something about how Brian was murdered, and deep down in my heart, that is how I felt. Rita, said that Brian's was now on the other side to meet the people who was crossing over.
On July 11, I received a phone call from one of my customers who call to tell me that his son was killed on Tuesday Evening in a car accident and he was only 16 years old. When the hospital pronounce his son dead the first person who he thought about was my Son Brian and that he hopes that Brian was there to meet with his son who was crossing over. He told me that he feels Brian around him, and he never had the opportunity to meet my son. My son Brian was truly a special person and he was a gift to the universe. They even dedicated a square after him.
