Rosalie was one of my other "mothers" when I was growing up and she always opened up her home and loving arms to me when a was a kid. Her gentle spirit welcomed me with love in the days I sometimes felt lost. My thanks and appreciation goes out to her family for allowing me to share in her love way back then.
