Sweet Rosie,
You were an angel that walked on the face of this earth. We feel so blessed to have known you.
Even though we feel sorrow at this time, we are also rejoicing because we know that you are where you have been wanting to be, surrounded by our Heavenly Father, and Jesus and your husband and your son.
Thank you also for all the great stories, especially the fishing ones.
We love and miss you, Deb & David
