My dear Aunt Rosie was my favorite aunt. I have so many wonderful memories of my childhood visiting her and staying with her and the family for 2 weeks in the summer time in the early 50's. I love her and know that she's with all family members up in Heaven now. May she rest in Peace.Amen.

Was in the company of Rose several times, mostly at the St. Cosmas & Damian Feast which she loved so much. She was a woman of great love. As St. Paul states, "Love never fails, it endures forever. " Rose now lives in Perfect Love and the memory of her life and love will live on in the countless hearts she had touched in her abundant life. She now rests in Perfect Peace. Even though I am unable to attend her funeral Mass in Conshohocken, please know I am offering masses here in OCNJ for the repose of her soul and the comfort and consolation of you, her family and friends, and all her loved ones.

To have lived more than a century -- and to have been loved by family, church and friends -- is an extraordinary gift. At Mass tomorrow, I will pray that Rose be blessed again, with the ultimate gift of eternal life.

I will remember Mrs. D which is what I called her as sweetest lady around. I am a niece of Father Louis P Giorgi who was the pastor of St Justin's church where she worked for 30yrs. She would make the biggest strawberry short cake every July for my uncle's birthday. She was generious,loving,compationate and I will miss her deeply.
