Please accept my condolences for your loss. For years I had the pleasure of knowing not only Rose but her husband Bud. Bud and I worked together at the Washington Daily News and again at the Wash. Post. I will try to make the service on Friday but if I can't be there please know my thoughts and prayers will be for Rose's family.
