I am a neighbor living in Rose’s building. I only learned of her passing this past week. I was very surprised and saddened, and send my sincerest condolences to family and friends. Rose was good neighbor and a wonderful person. She and I would catch up whenever we ran into one another. Her family meant the world to her, and she often spoke of how blessed she felt to have you so close. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of assistance in any way.

Hello everyone. To those of you who signed this book, and those who will, thank-you. You have made me and my family eternally grateful. My grandma rosie gave my brother and I a grandmas love and attention. But with the sweets, comes the sours. She will be dearly missed by all of us. She touched everyone who met her. She will be in my heart, mind, being, and prayers always. God bless you all.

Dear Family,
My thoughts are with you during this trying time. Rose and I worked together several summers in Saratoga and I always enjoyed hearing the many stories about all of you that she shared with me. You were her life and could tell how much she loved you in the stories she told. She was a wonderful woman and will be missed by all those whose lives she touched.

To Rose's Family, I am so sorry to read of Rose's passing. I used to work with Rose years ago at Key Bank. Never was there a more proud mom or grandmother. She spoke of you all frequently and lovingly. Rose was quite a lady and will be sorely missed by many. May God bless you during this sad time.

Lisa,
I am not sure you will remember me, but I worked at Sears with you and your Mom. She was a dear friend to me and we shared many many laughs! I hadn't seen her since those days but reading through these messages tells me she was exactly the same. I hope you and your family can find peace in knowing your mother was a wonderful person.
