My deepest Sympathy to the whole family on hearing about Roz's passing.
I will always remember her from my childhood through my adult years. Back in the early 70's when I was at the house hanging out with Nancy, Roz had just made fresh carrot juice & she wanted me to try it. It seemed so strange! Little did I know, she was way ahead of her time & knew how healthy it was! I would see her walking on the street or driving when I would come into town. She always had a smile & would stop to talk and catch up.
May all your loving memories help you through this difficult time and may you find comfort in the outpouring of love from family & friends.
Love always,
Karen (Rosenthal) Wolofsky
