My condolences to Rosie´s family. She and I were classmates throughout the years. We were in the same classes and enjoyed quizzing each other on our studies and debating the rights and wrongs of a subject. I haven´t been around in a very long time, but I am saddened to hear of her passing! She was absolutely the BEST kind of human being. The sweetest, most genuine, and authentic soul I may ever know. This world is lacking one more shining soul upon it this day.
