I know Rosemarie from the Mount Carmel Women's Guild. She was so much fun to be around and always made me laugh. I remember her saying, "Ashley, don't burn me with those meatballs!" when we were cooking for the Open Pantry. She had a huge heart and was always willing to show up at events to help even when I knew she was not feeling the greatest. Rosemarie, I will really miss your warm spirit. I wish you knew the impact you had on my life and the entire Women's Guild.

To family of Rosemarie:
So sad to learn of Rosemarie's passing. She was a very independent lady and was so kind to Larry and I when we went to Italy with her.. We corresponded many times after she moved to Enfield.

Dear Johnny -- We were saddened to hear of Rosemarie's passing. She was a wonderful cousin and friend. There are so many memories of days in the South End, at the Connecticut shore, playing cards and of course her love of traveling. Now she will be looking down on all of us along with mom, dad, brother Angelo and her beloved Joe. Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers at this time.

Dear John and Rita
So sorry to read of your mom's passing. It seems that our family is getting smaller as we all grow older. All of our parents are gone and now it is our turn to move onto a better place. Rosemarie was a wonderful person and a wonderful cousin to have. Over the years we were all busy bringing up our families and did not see as much of each other as when we were younger. She will be missed by each person whose life she has touched. From her cousin Johanne Marois
