Rosemary and I shared a common interest in the goings on in Kensington, Maryland where we both lived. She was always "in the know" about what was happening in and around the town. I miss those discussions greatly. We also shared a taste for lemon meringue pie. Rosemary was a great and good friend.

Rosemary was my first cousin, the daughter of my mother's brother, David. My mother always said Rosemary, the only daughter, was cherished by her father. After high school, she went to work for the federal government and later for Warren Wilson College. She was always conscientious - in her work, in helping her family and in participating as a citizen in her town of Kensington MD. Rosemary was kind, determined to do the right thing, and live her life with energy and persistence. Love to her nieces, nephews, neighbors and family. We will miss her.

Rosemary had a kind and beautiful spirit. As a girl I would see her every Christmas. I remember feeling so comforted by her warm smile and loving personality. It made an impression on me how devoted she was to her family. I will always cherish my memories of the time I spent with Rosemary. She was so fun and sweet. Rosemary will be missed by me and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her. My prayers and love go out to her friends and family.

Rosemary was a kind, and very dear person. We shared many good times, especially at Mama and Daddy's house when we would all get together and have a picnic on the porch. Christmas was always fun too and she kept an album of pictures from times we shared. We always admired her neat and organized approach to life as well as her calm and sweet nature. She will indeed be missed by all of us but we know she is now no longer suffering. We honor her memory and mourn her loss.
