I send the Rose Family my deepest sympathy and a prayer that God's love will comfort you in your sorrow. I will miss my line brother and friend. I have so many wonderful memories of our days at Norfolk State as well as the great times we shared in his home in recent years! I will miss his great sense of humor, his zest for life, and the strength he exhibited through the tough experiences of life. Rest in peace my brother.
