Rose will be remembered fondly as a strong brave independent woman who fought her illness with dignity and humor. She never lost her faith or her ability to entertain. She always welcomed visitors with a joke or funny story and was quick to offer something to eat. Her passing will leave a great void in our community. Rest in peace you deserve it. Always Bob and Deb
