I just found out of Rosina's passing, and I can't believe it. I'm here in my car crying, I can't believe she's gone. She was always there to help in whatever you needed. That's was what I was about to do, ask her for her advice. She was so wise and kind. I respect her and loved her, she was one of the greatest persons that have ever crossed my path. She will forever be remembered, she will be a legend at Howe elementary and the San Juan school district. It was a pleasure to have have met her and to have worked with her.

During the last two years, Rosina was my Spanish language tutor. We met almost once per week during the school year at the Campus Commons clubhouse to read from Spanish books, translate documents for my research, review grammar and have conversations in Spanish. I was looking forward to continuing the lessons this coming year, but I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to know Rosina, to learn from her, and to experience her bright and wonderful personality. I will always be inspired by Rosina - my deepest condolences to her family.

My thoughts are with you all through this difficult time. Rosina was a force of nature and will be truly missed. I worked with her several times through Howe Ave organizing toy drives and helping to feed families at Thanksgiving. She was such an instrumental part of Howe Ave and will be sorely missed. I am deeply saddened for your whole family.

My deepest condolences to the Ruano and Martinelli families. Rosina will be missed. I met her at our parent liaison meetings when I use to work at Greer Elementary school. She has a very friendly personality and great smile. I learned a lot from her and became friends. Her laughter and great stories were awesome. Rest in Peace Rosina. Sending prayers.

What I think of the most when I think of Rosina is her genuine love and interest in the children she worked with - she cared deeply and knew her efforts were felt. The other part that I remember of Rosina is her laugh. Her laugh came out of her soul and created oonnections with so many people. She was proud of her work. She was proud of her kids. Nicely done, Rosina!
