To all of Rose's Family

Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. Although I have not see cousin Rose in many years I remember her as a loving, fun person always with a smile. I always enjoyed her facebook posts which again showed her smile and love for her family.

I have such fond memories of my many years of being one of Rose's friends. I used to always call her our little ever ready battery. She never knew when to sit down she was always doing some form of a project. Or always working out in her Gardens. Rose and I met at a local pizza restaurant in downtown Hendersonville North Carolina. There was at least 10 of us single women and one guy that would always meet on a Thursday evening. We always had great times visiting with everyone and having good laughs. Then Rose decided to pop off and run down to Florida. I visited her a couple times and said well maybe Florida wouldn't be so bad so the journey continued through our friendship and I moved down to Florida as well.... and we all know how the story continued. She will be forever missed in my heart. She was a little pistoI. Always on the go...we know that our good Lord will take care of her.

My favorite cousin. So many childhood memories. We used to play paperdolls for hours. So glad I got to see her a few years ago when she was well and vibrant. Peggy (Griffin) Drago
