Dear Zvaras, I am Mel Ann Robinson (Schollenberger), your neighbor at 25 Hastings Road from 1968-1972. On behalf of myself and my mother Mel, and my brother, Mark, I would like to extend our deepest sympathies to you at this sad time. Rose was a great lady and we have such fond memories of her and all the family antics we had with your family back then! We'll be thinking about you daily but know that Rose is exactly where she wants to be now and hope you'll have comfort in that thought. Love from the Robinson Family

Sara and I were saddened to hear about Diane's and John's loss. We are their friends in Houston and I discovered another connection here. While working in Cambridge from 2000 to 2003 I used to play at the same Fresh Pond golf course Rose frequented. Beautiful place. Played with some delightful locals. Perhaps Rose and I met there.

Dear John, Jim and the rest of the Zvara family:
We were saddened to hear of Rose's passing but are so thankful to God for allowing us the opportunity to have known her and enjoyed her company for so many years. She was a woman truly befitting of her name, always a strikingly lovely flower to behold and one who graced every gathering with a beautiful fragrance of charm and hospitality. We can't begin to imagine the hole that now exists in your hearts and home without her, especially for you John, her loving and devoted husband. We take comfort that she is no longer suffering from her cancer but has been welcomed into the presence of her Lord and Savior in perfect radiance because of her steadfast faith.
May the peace of Christ that passes all understanding be granted to all of you along with an extra measure of grace from the Great Comforter to help you through the sorrow and joy of her passing from your presence.

Lovingly,

Ted & Lynda Wheatley
