Aunt Rosie was my Dads (Jerry Sr.) youngest sister. We (Dad, my Mom Mary & Myself) traveled to St. Louis a few times on vacation. I have some great Christmas memories of the entire family together in the early 60s. Aunt Rosie & Uncle Jack brought my cousins & Grandma Combs to California one summer for a visit. We went to a couple amusement parks & the Beach while they were here. Aunt Rosie & Uncle Jack visited Mom in Sun City several years ago & I drove out to see them. I remember has a very kind & loving Aunt. I will see you in the Stars Aunt Rosie.

Rosie was a wonderful friend since 1965 when we met at Calvary Lutheran Church in north St. Louis. We had many exciting and fun times together, both at church and away from church. She was always so positive and a loving person to be around. I will miss her frequent calls to give me news from St. Louis. But I am happy that her struggles are over, and she is safe in the arms of her Savior.

My dearest friend ever since 1941 When we started grade school together. We were very close all thru high school & we doubled dated often. She was always a shining star in my life even though we went in different directions. I was thrilled to be in her & Jacks wedding. Over the years we were able to lunch together & regain our close friendship. I always loved to hear her voice & talk to her over the phone. I will miss her tremendously. My sympathy & love to Jack , Mike, Kelly & the family.

Aunt Rosie was such a funny, loving, thoughtful woman, good mother & wife. She was tender and caring to everyone. I have so many fond memories of family gatherings and the talks we would have in the past few years. I am so grateful I could see her last year and tell her I love her. Condolences and prayers to her sweet husband, Uncle Jack and the kids and grandkids.
See you all soon. Love Anne
