I loved seeing Rose at the library and now that I have my own child, I can't think of any sweeter profession than helping little children find books to love. She has crossed my mind many times through the years but I never knew how to contact her to say hello. I hope the memories comfort her family and I pray her soul is at rest. Job well done faithful servant. Carla MHS class of 2000.

When I taught school at Somers Elementary Rose was the person you went to in the library. She was always willing to help you and became a sweet friend to me. I know that she is in heaven with Dee now. You will be missed sweet Rose.
