Rose was a kind and gentle woman whom I worked with at the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce. She was very accurate and treated everyone with kindness and respect. I am so sorry to hear of her passing.

I worked with Rose for about two years. I appreciated her professionalism and her willingness to assist me as a new comer to the office. She was always very kind to me. She was a person of great integrity. I enjoyed that she was interested in many subjects and she was a great conversationist. I often sat beside her at all staff luncheons. I especially enjoyed hearing about her family when I asked "how was your week-end?" I love the picture posted and sincerely wish I had gotten to know her better and in a different setting. My deepest sympathy to each memeber of her family. Marsha Wood

I always enjoyed seeing Rose, she was genuine. I will miss sharing the Elvis tribute with her. She had a beautiful smile and this picture shows it beautifully.
