Aunt Rosalie, a stand up woman in heart mind and soul. Always smiling and cheerful, full of kind words, over pouring with love, and advice. A devoted wife and mother. She always made it a point to say how much she loved my mother and I treasured her sentiment. When I called her one day I heard lovely music and a familiar voice in the background. I questioned if it was Lawrence Welk and discovered we shared a love for his shows. She told me she enjoyed dancing to the polka’s. I can picture her in my mind stepping and twirling, smiling and laughing. She enjoyed a wonderful life and was filled with love for her friends and mostly you, her family. She couldn’t get enough of you my cousins and loved everyone of you deeply, well, just below Uncle Lenny. You were to her the greatest love and purpose for life. She was friendly, warm and welcoming. I think often about my visit there with Grandma Giannetto, who got no less than one speeding ticket each way. I had such an amazing time. This of course, is beside getting my tooth knocked out during volleyball, which neither she nor Uncle Lenny ever forgot. I felt so bad, every time they’d see me they’d look at that front tooth and shake their heads. :/
She prepared the most succulent venison and other meals. And I think laundry was an art to her, especially ironing. She ironed EVERYTHING, right to the skivvies! In fact, I watched her and as she ironed, the board flexed down nearly 8” running away from her, LOL. I told her the way she takes care of her children they’ll never find anyone to measure up! But you did. And she loved each person you chose wholly and without reservation. She was so proud of you, her growing family, and how much you loved one another, got along at every family gathering and never fought. She always said I have the best family, they love me, always call and visit, they take real good care of me. She treasured every card and letter, living her life through them.
She is missed and her absence will be cradled with pleasant cherished memories. My condolences to each of you dear cousins. Words cannot express the loss of a mother, especially one as devoted as she. But I praise God for loaning her to you and hope you think on the blessings of her involvement in your lives as well as her wisdom for biting her tongue at important times. We are all better because of Rosalie Giannetto. Thank you Father God!

My heart hurts to see such a wonderful person pass. I will always remember your positive outlook on life and how you were always so happy! Might be cliche, but you are an angel.
