In memory of Miss Rosalee Fields. Forever in our hearts.

Aunt Rosalie was always a fun-loving person and farm girl at heart. She always enjoyed attending our many family get-togethers at which she had to take updated photos of each family group to include in one of her many photo albums! She would always make us laugh. Except when we were younger and she'd visit some Saturday mornings, waking us up with a cold, wet wash cloth! Although we'll miss her terribly, we know she's suffering no more and we take comfort in knowing we will be with her again some day.

to the family, i would like to send my sympathy to you. miss rosalee was a very nice person who thought about others more than herself. she used to be good friends with my grandfather, the late rev. julius chandler. she once was teaching him to help him improve in his reading. she came to his viewing and was so glad to see her. i'm gonna try my best to make one of the services.i'm a little sick but my prayers are with you at this time. our family thought a lot of her. she was a special person in our hearts.

Miss Rosalie was the epitome of a "cheerful giver." She always kept a positive attitude and put everyone else ahead of herself. She didn't really believe how special she was, or how much of an impact she made on the lives of others. Miss Rosalie, you set a high standard; we hope we can take to heart the many lessons you taught by the way you lived your life. Thank you for being part of our lives.
With much love,
Melissa and Bruce

Rosalie was a cherished member of the Worcester County Health Department Diabetes Support Group. She contributed so much to each meeting. Her sharing of delicious greens and turnips was anticipated every year by myself and Linda Green, especially since we got half the dirt in her garden which always made us chuckle!!
We will miss her dearly.
