Rosie was a good friend. We worked together at the Dept.of Social Services. We spent many hours working side by side and every Friday shared some fun times dancing and relaxing from the stress of the week. Rosie was a great cook and would make me "spam and egg" burritos for breakfast. She was a Great person. She accepted me for me. I will truly miss you Rosie.

I am so sad to hear our friend is no longer with us. My husband and I know Rosie, because I worked with Rosie and we all would go dancing at China's. She was a very good friend to both of us and we will miss her dearly.
