I have a copy of Sr. Bernadette's death certificate for you. I have no way to scan and send it via email so if you like to have it, email me your airmail address and I will get it off to you. My email address is
lsullivan@camh.orgLooking through your posted queries and replies I have found no indication that you know where or when Rita McSweeney Burton died or if she, possibly, is alive. Is that the case?
Are there any other Harris County death certificates that you need?
I went to Clayton Genealogical Library on Saturday hoping to find something in Houston City directories. This is what I found.

I think 1986 is the latest directory they have.
There are 2 Coolgroves in the current directory (Rita Louise's ex-husband???)
Coolgrove, U C Jr. 5019 Arizona St., Houston TX 77017
