Not sure what to say?

Ginny, I'm so sorry for the loss of your mom. I remember her as a great fixture of my childhood. It feels like a warm blanket of memories when I think about your mom between Rockwoods events, spending time at the Nezzers, your house in Grover, our house in Pond, and especially the Halloween parties. My memories of you two hold a special place in my heart. Thinking of you and your family and praying for peace and comfort for you and your family during this time. With deepest sympathy.

Was neighbor of RoseAnn’s when she lived on Goldwood. Enjoyed visiting with her and missed her when she moved. My prayers with her family and friends.

RoseAnn was a great person and wonderful co-employe. She was and always will be a part of Rockwoods Reservation. Besides baseball, she was a big fan of Smokey Bear and had a great collection of paraphernalia. She always was there for friends and family and came to my aid when I needed her friendship. Bless your heart and thanks for sharing a part of your life with me.

RoseAnn was our neighbor for many years. She was such a dear person. I remember the day she came out and introduced herself... so many years ago! We spent many an hour outside talking while my kiddos played or when I was sitting on my porch swing. She was so kind to help me get some Smokey the Bear items to use for rewards for the children who excelled at reading in school. When she moved, we kept in touch with phone calls and Christmas cards. I will miss those calls. There are so many that...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

RoseAnn is the glue that kept everything together at Rockwood! She filled in for my mom after she passed and I loved her like my mother. I was so happy when she got a cell phone because we could text each other often which we did while watching the cardinals games. I worked opening weekend of deer season at Rockwood by myself so that I wouldn’t have to share her fried chicken dinner with anyone else. I miss her already.

What a joy it was having a friend like you Rose Ann...I miss you so much but am thankful your pain is gone. God's blessing to your wonderful family. Love you all.

Roseann was a great person to work with at Rockwoods Reservation. She was always helpful to everyone. She would make me fried chicken on my birthday.

RoseAnn constantly had my back at work and also had a difficult job of keeping Skip Kincaid, Rob Emmett, Bruce Vawter, Greg Toczylowski, Dennis Cooke, and especially me out of trouble.

Her free time was always devoted to taking care of her family members.

She loved watching the Baseball Cardinals and...
