Richard and I express our deepest sympathy in the loss of my Aunt Rosie and your Mother.

What a wonderful legacy she has left for us to remember.

One of my fondest memories was when you all lived in Thorn Hill, I had spent the night with Patricia and for breakfast she made french toast for us. That was my first time eating french toast, and I continue making french toast today. When I do, I remember first eating that in Thorn Hill.

I truly love Rosie and all of you. I cherish the picftures you have posted on this website. It brings back so many memories. The picture of the Miller clan is one to enjoy when they were so young. Is this picture before Clara Ann was born? My, how Rosie lookes like her mother. They were two beautiful women.

I also remember the time when Rosie came to our houee in Florida. Our son Brian was probably around 8 years old and when they pulled up in the drive way, he came running in the house and pulled at his neck and said I know you are related, you both have turkey necks!!!!!

If you have a picture of your Mother, I would love to have one, especially like the one in her obit notice.

I also remember when Rosie and Reginald and all of you would come in to visit, all of you would come to see my Mother. Frankie was so dedicated and made sure he always visited my Mother. He always told her how he remembered staying with her on week-ends when he was a young boy and how good my Mother was to all of the boys in our family.

Time has flown by over the years and I know all of us will have to leave one day. Just remember to be ready for the next life and what a family renunion we will have when we all get to heaven.
