I am so sorry to hear of Rosemary's passing, she left far too soon. She was always a kind, loving person and loved her family and husband dearly. The world needed her positive energy more now than ever. We'll see you again Rosemary.

My sympathy and prayers for comfort to all of Rosemary's family & friends. Nine years ago when I first met Rosemary at Hope Community Resources she was a sweet oasis of peace, humor, prayer and thoughtfulness during my work day. She brought the light of the Lord to those she touched each day. I am Blessed to have had the opportunity to know her and pray with her.

We were very blessed to have Rosemary in our life and she has been like a great aunt to our girls. We will remember fondly the laughter, games & meals shared and will pray for her family left behind. No more tears, no more pain but she leaves a tremendous legacy as the matriarch of her family. May we continue to love and show kindness unconditionally as she quietly did for so many coworkers and others needing a helping hand. We thank God for her inspiration to us!

My oldest sister - 18 years older than me has moved on to the other side to be with our parents. She was first born and first of the six of us to pass. She was adventurous, moving out to Florida, back to New Jersey, then to Colorado and ending up in Alaska. She played the violin in school, appreciated music her whole life and had a great laugh. She wrote letters to my parents constantly, and continued sending cards to family when everyone else was texting and facebooking. She was very family oriented and organized many a celebration. I am so glad there is a life celebration for her passing. And I am blessed to have been able to speak to her by phone the day before she left us. Peace and love to all she left behind. Love always, your little sister, Helen-Marie. XOX
