Rose was a graduate of St. Vincent School of Nursing in Jacksonville Florida. She had a long

Rose's heart was open to everyone she met. She was a loving bridge between all types of
people. Anyone who knew Rose had at least one thing in common. They were loved and
appreciated by her.
She was preceded in death by her husband Earl Mackin Jr; her parents Vincent and Gladys
Patalano; and her brothers James and Vinny Patalano.
Rose is survived by her loving children: Sean Mackin and Brian Mackin (Arlene); her Sister
