Mary, Ben, John, Ed, Fred & Kathy -

I'm very sorry to learn of you Mom's passing. But take comfort in knowing that she's now with your Dad - and what a time I'll bet they're having.

I often recall the fond memories of my years in Selkirk - the gardens, the pool-opening operation, horseshoes, cookouts, the bridge, the "five acres" and that rarely empty table under the apple tree in your parents' yard.

My best to you all, with my heartfelt condolences.

....Mike

Giovannetti Family,

My prayers go out to all of you. I remember Rose when I was a child (in the 70s). Her friendship with my mother, Stella, brought me to her home often and I always had an amazing time. To this day, I still don't forget them. Her generosity was overwhelming and she made me feel like one of her own. When I heard of this, it brought back many childhood memories that I will never forgot. She was a wonderful person in life . . . and will continue to be that wonderful person in spirit and in our hearts. She will be missed, but she will never be forgotten.

I send my condolences to you on the loss of your mother. Rose was always a good and fun loving person.
Although I haven't seen her in alot of years, I can remember our bowling league. I do know that my Aunts really enjoyed those card games with her. She is at peace, but will be missed.

Take care,
