Not sure what to say?

My sincere condolences to the family. My mother until her death in 1991 always spoke fondly of the time she did domestic work for the family. My contact with Rose during the ensuing years was via
cards or occasional telephone conversations. She was a caring person who will be missed by all who knew her.

Sincere sympathy to Harry and family God bless

Thinking of you all at this sad time, but remembering Rose's laughter and great nature. What a wonderful neighbor that we were blessed with!

Condolences to Brian and the Hunter family. May she Rest In Peace.

You have my sincere sympathy.
