I was fortunate to be one of 4 ladies to visit with Rosemary on Friday, 2-13. We spent our time telling stories, laughing, talking about the soon to be garden outside her window. It was a wonderful visit, and one I will remember fondly. Rosemary was a very special lady, and she will be greatly missed. Darla Dotson (Hewitt Methodist Church)

There was not a time that you would see Rosemary that she didn't have a smile on her face. I met Rosemary while she worked as my father-in-laws secretary. He always spoke so highly of Rosemary. She will always hold fond memories in our family and will be greatly missed! Phil and Nancy Neely
