I never got to meet her but I can tell she was an amazing and loving woman. She raised some great women . I´ve known Rayna for almost 18 years and her sisters. I´ve had the pleasure of knowing them over the years with lots of memories , I can tell Rosa´s personality shined through her kids. Prayers and healing thoughts for your family and loved ones who are going through sad and heartbreaking time.
