We were so sorry to hear of Rosanne passing. We have known her at Headlines for many years. She often talked about her 2 daughters. You should know you have a great mother who cared for you a great deal. We will miss her smiling face the next time we go to headlines. With our deepest sympathy.

“Love is stronger than death even though it can't stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it can't separate people from love. It can't take away our memories either. In the end, life is stronger than death.”

Rosanne and Randy I love you and miss you dearly, but with everyone's wounderful memories you will never be gone or forgotten.

Ashley and Jilly, stay strong and know how many loving people are here for you and love you with all thier hearts. My thoughts and prayers are with you girls.

I love you all and forever will.

There are no words to even describe what you are going through. I knew your Mom from high school but have not seen her in a very long time. I know the saying states " Everything happens for a reason" ! I'm someone that really has not figured out what that saying really means yet! Please be strong and know from someone that has experienced a tremendous loss in their life, that your family and friends really do make a difference ! Please know that you are in my prayers and somehow God will get all of you through this tragedy !

September 11, 2007

To the Simonians, Burgios, the staff at Headlines, and most of all the beautiful daughters who will survive and grow with the help of our Lord, a loving Mother, Father and grandparents watching over them from above. Everyone will miss the caring, loving, laughing and mother hen to all, our beautiful Rosanne. She always made everyone feel special, she had a glow about her, that could change even a gloomy day into sunshine and a gloomy puss into a laughing smile. The love she had for her "family" who encompassed a large amount of people, was a great part of whom she was, a trait which she passed onto her daughters, I know she would not leave this earth except she knew God needed her more and Her daughters would be taken care of by her wonderful family. May the Lord bless you all and find strength and comfort in his love. My prayers will continue for the girls and family.

As we all experience the loss of loved ones at any cause, at such a sad and confusing time, you wonder about your faith and how such a tragedy can happen. Please remember it is your faith that will keep the spirit of Randy and Roseanne always with you and your family. It is your faith that brings everyone closer at such a difficult time. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to family and friends of Randy and Roseanne. I would go to her shop a few years back and what a great place it was to share "girl talk" and laugh and be surrounded by many friends.

September 8, 2007

Ashley and Jill,
First I want to say that I am so profoundly sad for the loss you girls must endure from your mom and dads passing. I remember sleeping over your house on Shepard all the time when we were both little, Jill. Your parents always made me feel welcome and I have so many wonderful memories of us listening to the Spice Girls and your dad giving us money so we could get candy at Quick Check. Your mom and dad would always let me go with you to family parties and it really felt like I had another family waiting for me just around the corner from my house. I hope that you girls will recover physically from this terrible tragedy and know that for every tear you cry your mom and dad will wipe away with their angel wings.

My thoughts are prayers,

Mary & Donald Montero

September 8, 2007

To the Burgio family, we want to express our deepest sympathies to you and want you to know that all of you are in our prayers as well as the continued recovery of Jillian and Ashley.

Dear Robbie and family and The Simonian family,
What do you say at a time like this,when something you can't even imagine happens. I'll always remember Randy as a part of my childhood growing up.I haven't seen Randy in many years and never met his beautiful wife Roseanne.It sounds like they we're a one of a kind couple.I am so very sorry you had to lose two very special people. I pray for Ashley and Jillians recovery. I'm sure they have alot of love around them to help them through this.
Love, Donna Vitale

Tony and Gina Scinta

To the Burgio and Simonian families,
We had the privelege of knowing Randy and Rosanne. No words can convey the sorrow we feel for the entire family. We hope that some of your grief is eased knowing how many hearts were touched by Randy and Rosanne. Our prayers are with Jillian and Ashley for a speedy recovery. God bless you all.
