Paddy, Pete, Holly, Mark and Maggie, I have such good memories of our early neighbor days on Brown Circle. Your mom was always patient and loving as we played for hours in your basement or out on the circle. I'll always remember her "Mrs. Gallagher smile". My condolences to all of you as you celebrate her life in memory. JoAnn Stretch Meyer

My sympathy to all of the Gallagher family. It is very hard to loose a loved one so dear, especially now. Rosie always loved going to her house to celebrate holidays with your family. Frannie was a wonderful lady and will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers to you all.
