My sincere condolences to the Flaherty family on the passing of my Aunt Rosemarie. She is surely with Uncle John in heaven.
Rosemarie had quite an infectious personality, and it was always fun to be around her.
We communicated off and on over the years, and I always wished there was more of an opportunity to spend time with her and her family. Distance and the paths of life always seemed to get in the way.
I will pray for Rosemarie and her family.
Remember the good times!

Rosemarie was an enthusiastic and vivacious lady who brought love and laughter to all her friends (the Water Babes) for several years. I thank God for her friendship.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We (the WaterBabes) are going to miss our dear Rose, she was a crazy delightful friend who would say what was on her mind and had a style all her own. She was always dressed for a party and excited about life. She loved our Friday card games and birthday luncheons and never wanted to miss out on the fun. She had a beautiful smile and a warm loving heart.
We will truly miss her spirit and love of life. Karen For The WaterBabes
