I will miss Ms. Rosemary dearly. She was always so cheerful when she called. Always thoughtful of others, she never missed a time when she didn't ask about how my mom was doing. She always told me she needed to get back to work "to get those kids in line - you know they need someone to tell the right thing." I know she is taking care of everyone in heaven - keeping them in line... what a dear sweet lady! I love you Rosie!

Thanks to everyone for all the prayers. I had the best grandma ever! She has done so much for me and was always there when I needed her. She was my second mom. I will truly miss her more than you know. She will always be with me in my heart and she has left me with so many great memories. God couldn't have blessed me with a more special grandma than her. I love you crazy grandma!!!!

Rose, Lucy (Lucille) & Family...You may not remember me but I warmly remember your precious mother. She was always so enthusiastic at our softball games (Kirkland Gulf). I always loved her spirit and the love that she and your dad showed for you and all us girls. I am so sorry to hear of both their passings and your loss of "Bug" in the newspaper. I will always remember you and your family with love and admiration. Please know that you are in my prayers at this difficult time. I'm sure we will all see her in Paradise.God bless you in the days to come.
