Rosie was a wonderful person all around. She was a proud mother and a proud grandmother. She was always talking about her babies all of them. And i hope you all know how much she truly loved you all.
To me she was grandma not by blood but heart. She was my pappaws better half and she knew it.
She was always thoughtful asking how others were doing no matter her condition.
But rosie is in a better place im sure she is happy to be reuntied with her son.
May she rest in peace and god be with you all during this difficult time.
