I asked Wednesday morning for recommendations for a GF all purpose flour
because I was under the impression that the one I had been using (Mr.
Ritt's) was no longer available because his shop was closed and he was no
longer making visits to my local support group (which had been how I had
been obtaining the flour for the past however many years).  Several asked
for a summary and I've already had over 2 dozen responses, so here goes....
 
First, I found out that my principle statement was flawed.  I can also still
obtain the flour from several regional distributers and there is a
restaurant in that Grandma's Grotto was one of them.  I have been there
before have looking for an excuse to get back.  I may have just found it.
The distributers are shown on his website at www.mrritts.com  Some of them
will even ship.  Also, someone pointed out that it can be shipped through
Amazon.

Thank you to everyone for giving me lots of ideas and I hope the summary is
helpful to others!
