Dear Cousins, Thank you for letting us be a part of Rose's Celebration of life yesterday. We were very honored. I know it is hard to let her earthly body go, but I can only imagine that she is running on the streets of Heaven and MaMa and Daddy are trying to keep up with her. We love you all and promise to uplift you in our prayers just as you have done for us this past week. Remember we WILL see our loved ones again!

Kim, Janet and Mr.Kemp,
Although it has been several years since I have seen any of you, I have to say that I have fond memories of Rose as well as you all. Mrs. Rose was one of my favorite patients. It was always a pleasure to see her. She always had a smile on her face and cheer in her heart no matter how bad she felt. I am thankful for the memories that I have of her and will carry on in my heart. I pray that God will comfort each of you during this sad time. Have faith that you will see her again in God's kingdom for this will help ease the pain. God bless!
