I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your dear mother. I remember your mom and dad from Sam's outlet. I bought numerous outfits from them. The christening and communion outfits were gorgeous!
It was fun to go in there because your parents were so personable and loved their job!!! It was so nice to go into their store because they had a wonderful work ethic and I always admired that. We became more like friends than customers !

May your mom Rest In Peace. My prayers to all of you. Remember all the happy times and may the great memories keep you going with a smile.
Take care. Cathy Fabrizio

To The RosenbalumFamily,
May you except our deepest condolences to you and your family from our family. It's at times like this that I like to read a scripture from Ecclesiastes 5:20. Helps us to deal with our grieving process. Please read it when you get a chance. It will bring you much comfort.
My Best Regards
D. Walker
