Mary and family, I was saddened to hear of the loss of your sister, Rose. It is wonderful that she knew you loved her very much. I will not be able to be there in person, but know that you are all in my prayers and I will be with you in spirit.

I am so sorry to hear of Rose's passing. I was part of a foursome who cleaned St John Church and Chapel. We enjoyed each other's company. I moved to Martinsburg and kept in touch with her via email.
I will kep you all in my prayers.
