Dear Garry,
I am so saddened for you, your family and Rose's friends.
Your Mom was such a terrific woman. I feel honoured to have worked and played with her at Extension and those years after when I visited with her and Larry, then just her in Regina. She always had a drink, then later tea and goodies for me. Over 30 years ago she gave me a teapot which I call Alladin's lamp. I always think of her when I use it. She was such fun and had a great soul. I will miss seeing her but she will stay in my memory and heart. Via con dios Rosita.

We have just learned of your passing, which seems not possible. You had an indomitable spirit, a boundless zest for life, and your wry humour always made us laugh. We shall truly miss you, Rose! Sincere condolences to all of Rose's family.

I worked with Rose at University Extension, University of Regina from 1985 until she retired. We shared many laughs. Rose was a wonderful person and I will miss her and I know others who worked with her during those years will miss her as well. My condolences to her family and friends.
