The Jersey guys ate her food and drank her whiskey many times over the years. Always an open heart, open arms and an open home. I had the honor to dance with her a few times. What a life, what a legacy, what a Lady. She will be dearly missed.

There are too many memories to recount. Roseann was a rock on East Fourth Street. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. Nancy and I send our love and prayers to the Casper's and Roseann's extended family.

Paula & Robert, I was so to hear of your Mother's passing. She will be missed, but you have memories to cherish and keep her in your heart. Take care and I am in Florida so I cannot attend the services, but I am praying and thinking of you all.
