Scott, Chris and Norma,
After all these years I have such warm memories of your mom. The many days and nights I spent in your home doing teenage girl things, your mom was always there for us. I remember her sweet voice and her loving ways. She will be missed.
You are all in my thoughts, especially you Norma!
Love, Liz Leder Giuffrida

Rosemary was there for me at a time when I didn't have any relationship with my mom.
She taught me poise, composure, approprite behavior,to challenge myself and so much more. She was strong yet caring, brilliant yet humble. I never realized it but seeing the wife and mother she was must of subconsciously resonated with me because my wife Cory has many of the same characteristics she had.
Although I love my mother dearly and we have a great relationship now, if I could have chosen a mother for life lessons, emotional guidance, love and unconditional support, she would have been the one.
Rosemary, you made the world a better place, me a better man and I will miss you.
Love, James

Scott, Ann, Chris, Lisa, Norma and the entire Eisdorfer/Dougherty family,
Ro was such a wonderful lady, always so kind. I truly enjoyed the times that I was blessed to have spent with her. She was like a grandmother to my daughter, and a dear friend to mom and dad. She will be so missed, but what great memories we will all be able to share. Love you all so very very much!!
