To the Rose Fmily,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your husband/dad. I remember him from back when Sheila and I were school mates during grammer school all the way through high school. I'm sure your memories will get you through this sad time.

Lenny will always be remembered by us for all the little things he did to make us laugh. How he would always check all the doors at night, sitting at the kitchen counting pennies and the conversations about his sport teams of choice.Gail and I will miss him but never forget him.Rest in peace UNCLE LENNY

Dear Rose Family: I worked for Harry at the S. Quaker Lane Food Saver in the 1950's. He treated people with kindness and respect and was a no nonsense boss with a sense of humor. May fond meories give you comfort and may Harry rest in peace.

Dear Friends,
On behalf of all of his comrades in Hartford-Laurel Post 45 of the Jewish War Veterans of the USA, please accept our deepest condolences on Harry's passing. It seems like just yesterday, we saw him at our monthly meeting with your family, and looking so well.
He was a courageous member of the "Greatest Generation", and we were proud to call him our brother. He was a real mensch.
May he rest in peace.
