To the entire Mathias family. So sorry for your loss. Lou Joy Natasha and Jason will miss her dearly. Lou was her number one man along with John. I can remember all the Christmas gifts she gave to Natasha and Jason over the years. Jason would always get a sports car. I now own one of them that I fell in love with it's on display in our bedroom. She gave Natasha a crystal slipper I now own that too. Oh I could go on and on. She loved Lou so much I can still hear her soft sweet tone when she would call our home to speak to Lou. Rosemary rest in peace.

Words cannot express my profound and deep sorrow with the death of your mother. She was loved and respected by all of the Molina family. She was a good woman and will continue to be remembered in the hearts and memories of those fortunate enough to have known her.
