Dear Tommy and family, So sorry to hear of your loss. I didn't know Rosa, however everything I have heard about her, she was such a blessing to everyone and could even keep you in line.



Tommy, I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Words can't express the sorrow that I feel for the loss of your wife and mother. Rosa was definitely an inspiration to many, including me. She was one of the reasons why I perservered while attending FAMU. Since my mother was far away, Rosa was the one that I came to. She helped me in so many ways. I loved her dearly and to her I just want to say...I will miss you.

Our tears seem to have no end. But I know that even if they do not cease, the time will come when they will be for the joy of treasured memories, for an extraordinary life shared, for knowing we shall see my beautiful Godmother again. Using this mode of expression is as therapy. Ro-Ro, a part of us died with you; but knowing you live in unspeakable joy strengthens our hope in The Resurrection and The Life. I will always love you. Ro-Ro we will miss you, you were more than our babysitter and Godmother you were an inspiration and a joy for us. We love you and always will. Take your rest now and we will see you again one day.

We are going to miss her so much. Ro Ro is a very important person in my life and my son Raquib, Ro Ro is the name the kids called her. Words can't express how much she will be missed. I love her as if she was my grandmother and because that is the way she made me feel. But I know she is in a better place with no pain or worries. But we most be strong and carry on because that is the way she would have wanted it to be.
