My prayers go out to Rose and her family. I have such fond memories of the bonds we formed and the fun we had working together in the 80s and 90s, I will always treasure those times. Rest in peace.

Eddie, Judy and Karen. I sadly came across the passing of your mom while on this web site. I flashed back to our Riverdale days and remembered how neat and cool she was. Again my deepest sympathy.

Rose, what a delicate flower. Your time with us at Potomac Basin Group has touched all of our hearts. You always had came in with a smile and always had a comical story for us. What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. What a wonderful lady. Love you Rosie R.I.P. Janie

Rose was very dear in all of our hearts at Potomac Basin. She was extraordinary-full of spunk and enjoyed her life to the fullest. I would often pick her up and take her home from work and so enjoyed getting to know her. May your cherished memories comfort you in your time of grief.

Rose you were a rock and rolled with the best of us. I will never forget the times we went to lunch or the times you and I ventured out at night to go to some lavish party. I still have a crystal lamp that I bought from the crystal party that you threw many many years ago. I know you are at peace now. Hugs and loves from Patty Pilzys Clark.
