My Momom was someone I was always close with. From skipping school to watch movies together to making grocery store runs, the time I spent with her was always special. I didn´t realize it then, but those moments would become some of my most cherished memories.
I remember I used to annoy her all the time by doing stupid things like spraying her with a water bottle or throwing candy at her. She never truly got mad at me (though she would pinch me from time to time), and that was just the kind of person she was. She was kind, yet incredibly strong(surprisingly) she was someone you didn´t want to mess with. I´ve always looked up to her for that.I miss her so much, and I hope she knows that nothing will ever be the same without her. She showed me what true grandmotherly love was, and I will always carry that feeling with me

Well Rose and I go way back oh my God to our teenage years . When she started dating Donnie and took me on a blind date with her and my mike. I always admired her strength, her courage, her work ethics and her love for her husband, 2 children n 2 grandchildren, and her fur babies.she never gave up ... I think having her drinks n hanging out w friends ( so deserved) gave her strength..She was a very hard worker, loving mother and caring friend . Rose, honey.. you will be forever in my heart and in my mind. I miss you immensely You raised yourself April n Ariel to be strong women and you would be very proud of them to see them today. You are probably cooking up in heaven and delicious meals you always make rest my friend.

There are so many fond memories of Rose. She was a very sweet, loving woman with a beautiful smile. She was a hard worker and always took care of her loving husband, Jeff and her beautiful daughters April, Ariel and her grandchildren Mia and Mikey. I miss her deeply. Fly High Rose! Love and more hugs to you my friend!
