I am so sorry about the death of Rosie. I just found out about her passing and had her on my list to call. I had been out of town for awhile or I would have been to the service. She and I use to talk on the phone for hours. I will miss her.

Aunt Rosie - May you find peace and love in the next leg of your journey with our God. You will be remembered lovingly and missed dearly by all of us remaining. Prayers to cousin Michael that you may find comfort knowing your Mom is able to rest and her soul is eased of the burdens of this world. Prayers for all of us family and friends to hold the memories of her close to our hearts until we can join her in eternal peace.
