I worked with Ratha for many years, then she became my neighbor. I enjoyed the time we spent visiting on her porch. Such a nice lady, always dressed, earrings and makeup. I’m going to miss her. My deepest condolences to her family.

Ms Rather was a very nice lady. I worked with her for years in the Admission Dept. I enjoyed visiting with her every weekend as we talked about our grandchildren!. She loved coming to work every weekend. We had lots of conversations about our grandchildren.
My prayers go out to the family!

Ms. Ratha was one of our my most valued employees in the Emergency Department Admissions area at Arkansas Children's hospital! She was a quick-witted, smart and jazzy crown jewel who was respected and loved by her team! It is my prayer that you are comforted by the beautiful memories she left in your heart.
