Not sure what to say?

Rosie was the sweetest most beautiful girl. Even at 15 she had class. Noah and I were at Point Loma High school and shared an American Government class. He came to school one day and said " we are almost ready to record our song. " He said it would be called Angel Baby. He said " we are finishing up writing the lyrics but I stuck on one part to a line". I asked " what the line was " he whispered " if you ever go, but I cant think how to finish that line". I thought about it and said " how...

Angel Baby was my wife's and my favorite song. We considered it "our" song (a popular trend "back in the day"). I loved her voice. I loved her song.

God bless you Rosie.

Thank you, Rosie for a wonderful Slow dance song. One of the all-time Greats. God´s blessings rest in peace

my first slow dance ever with Marie-Josée, the most beautiful love I ever had with the most beautiful teenager girl, a warm dark summer night with the grasshoper's singing in between the tunes.

Loved angel baby from the first moment I heard it. I´m now 81 and still a loyal fan. What a great talent!!!

I THOUGHT HER SONG, ANGEL BABY SHOULD HAVE BEEN RATED #1 ON BILLBOARD, NOT #5. MY BEST FRND BOB SEEVO WHEN HE FIRT HAR RHE SONG, STASTED.SIGHT UNSEEN, HE WOULD MARRY HER TODAY. "IF" WE WERE BOTH 18 YRS OLD THEN, NOW BOTH 81.

Her song angel baby reminds me of my sister's all excited getting ready to go to the dance, I was about 6 years old at the time, i remember the smell of hair spray all over the house, they were teasing there hair, there tiny waist , with thick shinny belt's, and they kept replaying Angel baby till they were ready to go, it's something i think about now and then, beautiful memories My condolences, it must have been great to know her...

RIP ROSIE: I was a teenager when I go to the Rainbow Ball Room in Fresno CA. I love your song Angel Baby it was mine and my first love song. I still listen to it and brings many memories 1970"s. My late husband passed away. I will always have this song in my heart.

Angel Baby was the first song I sang with a band at my Auntie's Wedding.
I will always cherish that song. Thanks Rosie
