Ron and I always enjoyed visiting with your incredible mother/mother in law whenever we saw her at one of the many Reid Stewart family get togethers over the years. She was a true example of beauty and kindness. Thinking of you all during this difficult time.

I am Nikelle's Aunt Mary. I met Rose back in the early 1970s. Rose has always been the sweetest person. I have loved her. She was an amazing Mom and grandma. I love you Rose.

Rose was my niece Nikelle's grandma. I met her in the 1970's when Pam and my brother Phil were dating. Rose was so very special. So sweet to me all these years. She raised wonderful kids. I loved her. Mary Rohe Okolowicz
