Dear Aunt Rose:
If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.
If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.
Snook, Roy, Kenny & Rose Marie aunt Rose was a lovely person and she will be missed by so many. I loved to hear her tell stories, I would laugh until I cried. Stay close to each other because life is so short. I Love you all. The Dixon Family.

You are in my thoughts and prayers! She may be gone but never forgotten! I can say that while riding with her on bus 38 the last few years that she drove, she was a wonderful lady and im so happy that she was in my life. I will miss from seeing my buddy but she is on to bigger and better things in heaven!
Love Ya Mrs Johnson!

To the Johnson Family
I'm sorry to her about the passing of Mrs. Johnson. She was a sweet and kind hearted lady that didn't take no wooden nickels from anyone. I will always remember our time together with her being my High School bus driver and then when I became a bus driver myself. Before we started out on our evening runs, the drivers used to gather under the big tree and we would share some of our stories about how the children were acting on our buses and Mrs. Johnson would always say that she didn't put up with that on her's because she put her foot down day one and if anyone didn't like it, they could find another way to school. Being that I had been a student on her bus I knew it to be true. May she R.I.P.

To the Johnson Family,
Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning light. The Lord who sits high and looks low would never put more on us than we can bear. Continue to look to the hills from which cometh your help, and your help comes from the Lord. We will continually keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
God Bless,

My Dearest Cousins, I can't begin to put into words the sorrow I feel in my heart. I have so many wonderful memories of Aunt Rose that I will cherish. But I know that her suffering is over. She is resting peacefully in the Master's arms. May those same arms give you comfort during this time of loss. I consider it an honor to have been a part of her life, and I will miss her. You know how to reach me if you need me! Love ya lots!
