Dear Gloria, Yolanda, Lirkira, Family and Friends,

I visited and shared in conversation, prayer, song and scripture with Ms. Rosa as minister and friend. I will never forget her tenacious spirit and words of wisdom. She loved (you all) her family and expressed this to me often. May God's peace bring you comfort as you honor her life and legacy! My thoughts and prayers are with you. If you should need a prayer or listening presence, know that I am available to you (the family) Rev. Braunda L. Ridley, M.Div. Odyssey Healthcare, Chaplain
