I said just yesterday that there were no words to describe how I feel and how much I am going to miss you, and still the only thing that comes to mind is, "I love you". I think, for you, that would have been enough.

Aunt Rose always had a way of making you feel welcomed and loved. She loved to dance, sing and joke around. I can remember many hours spent laughing with her, either at her house or the campground. My children, especially Jess, always loved when Aunt Rose would come visit my dad and they got to see her. She will truly be missed by all her friends and family, for she touched each and every one in her own special way. Love you!

I wish I could hold you in my arms and let you know how special you are to me. I know I've told you many times, but I wish I could tell you once more. My heart breaks knowing that I can't sit with you and joke around like we always did. I feel blessed to of had such a wonderful Grandmother. My husband Rick, your great grandchildren, (Julia, Mia, Kaylee, and Lucas) and of course I will miss you dearly. I'll keep you in my heart and my memories always.
Your "Crickle" misses you.
