Sorry to hear about your loss. I really liked Rosie and have good memories of her. I typed Rosie's name into the internet because I was thinking of notifying her when my dad (Kenny Ohnstad) died on October 7th, only to find that she had died three days before my dad. Hope you are all doing well. I have fond memories of visiting you all on the farm in Jesup when I was growing up. This is Lenny Ohnstad. Here is my dad's obituary:https://www.washburn-mcreavy.com/m/obituaries/kenneth-ohnstad/Memories
