Rose was a beautiful loving person. I am so sorry to hear of Rose's passing. My sisters Linda & Nancy & my daughter Jennifer phoned me to let know the sad, sad news. I was just in town for my Mom's funeral on the 15th & of course she was there. She was a dear, dear friend to both my parents. Unfortunately I wasn't able have a visit with her before leaving town, but had planned in the next couple months when I got back I would visit. Rose was great with all 4 of us girls myself [Beverly] Nancy, Linda & Pat, our kids {7 grandkids} & our kids kids {5 great-grandchildren} she knew them all. Mom & Rose both loved their gardening & it rubbed off on all of us kids. Very warm, loving thoughts of Rose for ourselves (the 4 girls) but especially the friendship Rose & Mom (Helen) had. Mom spoke HIGHLY of Rose often when I phoned her. She is truly a gem & will be a shining star in Heaven. Rose rest in peace.
