March 1, 2009
Rose visited our church when ever she came to visit her daughter (Linda). She always had a smile on her face and a kind word. She loved to visist our nursery where her daughter serves our children. She was a lovely lady, who will be missed by not just her family, but her friends at Braindard Avenue Baptist Church. We know she's walking streets of gold with no more aches and pains.
