Our family lived on Caspian for 33 years and there aren't many of the old schoolers left. The women of the community knew who you were and who your family was. I have spent many days playing outside and running around the blocks of the community and I knew if I wasn't doing right Ms. Rose or someone would tell my mother AFTER she got on me first. Little by little society has changed and Big Mommas are gone and replaced with hoochy Mommas. My kids will never experience the community effect and will never know the village it takes to raise them. They will never know the Big Mommas that watched you while you played and corrected you when you were wrong. Ms. Rose kept me in check and when I got home I couldn't even lie because I knew my mom already got the word. Not only would my mom know, but the whole neighborhood. So I got chastised all the way home. I didn't understand it then, but I thank Ms. Rose because she helped me become the person God wanted me to be. Thomas and Tonya my condolences to you. Your mother loved you and she loved people. Our community has lost a nice woman and a legacy. In deepest sympathy,

To the family of Rose Moore:
I am sorry and shocked to hear of her passing. She was a wonderful woman who loved children and her family. Rose was very proud of her son Tom who was such a nice, mild-natured young man. Her love extended beyond her immediate family and outwardly to others. She was a pillar of the "back Maryland" community and will be missed dearly. Her smile was infectious and her love gave you hope. She will forever be missed by all and I know she is smiling down on her grandson "Boo" who she always talked about and would come and check on her and see about her with her daughter Gena. She loved those kids. I am really going to miss her and will never forget all the wonderful things she did. Her death was such a surprise. When I walk by her house she won't yell my name anymore through the screen. It won't be the same.
But I gotta thank the Lord for letting me meet her and giving her to us for a little while. You learn alot from good people and one thing I learned from Ms. Rose was to smile because she always had something funny to say or news to share. She's with God now. His child is home.
