Dear Roz,
Although we haven't seen each other in many years, please accept my condolences in your loss.

I was so sorry to hear about Roz. for many years she served on the Board of Directors of NEADS and was always one of the first to support our efforts at fundraising events. I always consiudered her a role model, and hope that my life will be spent in as meaningful a way as hers. She was one of the very first people to champion the concept of recycling and always encouraged us to be respectful of the resources we have. I will greatly miss seeing her and whatever dog she had at the time at...

Worcester has lost one of its finest Grand Dames. Roz cannot be replaced, her work for Planned Parenthood is legendary and her dedication to music in all of its forms will long be remembered. It was a privilege to know her and to feel welcome in her home. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Bennett family. Sandra and Don Macintyre, Phoenix, Arizona

I was and am amazed at her ability to maintain constant support to the community for so many years. I sang in rehearsal with her just two weeks ago. She was a force!! I will miss her and the music community will miss her. However, I can...

Wish I could travel the distance to be there to celebrate Roz's much fullfilled and accomplished life. You all will be with me in thoughts throughout this difficult time. Love, Aunt Ruth ( The Quinlan Family too)

I remember living as a guest at her home for six months when I was a student. Although she quite terrified me at first I soon came to realize what a 'softie' she was and we became fast friends.
