My dear Michele and family, my heart is breaking for you on the passing of your beautiful angel Rose. I remember her as a beautiful little girl when she came into Manet. There are no words that I can say to ease your pain but I know the heart ache and the devastating loss that you are feeling. I remember how kind you were to me and my family that awful day in West Roxbury as we we mourned the loss of our angel Katrina. Please contact me when you feel able. Bridget Glynn (Ireland)

Rose will forever be a beautiful, spirited child. So much of the children’s childhood memories include Rose and Austin. It was so nice to see she was finding happiness.
