What wonderful memories I have of visiting
with your Mom, Maryrose. She always made us welcome whenever we
had the opportunity to visit. You are in my thoughts and
prayers.
Love, Maureen
Our prayers and thoughts go out to all the
Speitel family. We were so happy to hear that Rose spent her
last days on vacation surrounded by many of her family. She
loved you all so very much and was so proud of each of you. It
seems she lived her life to the very end in the presence of
those she loved so dearly. Its wonderful that she was so alert
and knew who you were!
We are so blessed to have been part of your family and had the
opportunity to share in Rose's circle of love. We will always
remember her kindness and gentle spirit. She was a very caring
woman who was so thoughtful and considerate of others. She
enjoyed living and sharing with her friends and family. We will
truly miss her cards, phone calls, and the opportunity to visit
with her when we come to PA. I know her passing will leave a
large void in your hearts.
May God give you strength and comfort you during this difficult
time.
Cathy and Harry Ward
Maryrose, Jay, Alicia and Little Red,
You are in our thoughts and prayers! Your mom (grandmom) was
such a blessing to so many.
We are here if you need anything!

We were very sorry to hear of Mrs Frey's
passing. She was a warm and considerate person and a wonderful
family friend. We will miss her. The Freys and Speitels are in
our thoughts and prayers.
Tom and Daniela Simpson and children
I am so sorry about your Mom. I have many
fond memories of her - most of them when she was bustling around
the kitchen trying to feed us and make us comfortable. I
remember my baby shower for Christa at the Wheatland Ave.
house, Maryrose and Jays engagement party, the party when the
Ham radio set off the alarm system, the rehearsal dinner - oh so
many great memories and such hospitality by Mrs. Frey. You were
blessed to have been raised by such a wonderful woman. I know
you will all miss her beautiful smiling face. May God be with
you as you miss your Mom.
Love, Nancy Pederson Patrick
Maryrose, Jay and family,
We were deeply saddened to hear the news of Rose's death. She
was such an important part of your family and we can only
imagine how much she will be missed by all of you. Please know
that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
With deepest sympathy,
Anne and Nick Hopkins
Dear relatives, please accept our condolences
at this tender time. I may have met many of you earlier in my
life, but have little remembrance of our meeting. I remember my
dad telling me of Aunt Rose an Uncle Charlie. I was to there
home in Lancaster only once, with my wife Lucia, and my Mom &
Dad. (Eleanor & Norm Welsh) It was a family reunion with many in
attendance.
I'm retired and live in Phila,PA (Burholme). I email cousin Lois
(Sigafoos) Peruta often. Her sister Gloria is currently creating
a Welsh family online album, and anyone with info to share would
be neat.
Best wishes to all, Norm Welsh

We're saddened to hear that we have lost a
relative that we never had the pleasure of meeting. I have
learned through my cousin John Norman Welsh of our relation to
your family.
We hope that your memories of this beautiful lady will comfort
you in your time of sorrow and hope that some day we may be able
to meet our extended family. My mother was Marion Theresa
(Welsh) Sigafoos, daughter of James William J. Welsh of
Philadelphia, PA.
I can be reached through my cousin J. Norman Welsh or at my
email address lois@amcable.tv.
With much sympathy,
Lois Sigafoos-Peruta & Family
I was sad to note the passing of your mother,
Rose Speitel Frey. I worked for John Frey for twelve years and
met Mrs. Frey when I picked up/dropped off work at 1103
Wheatland Avenue. You can be proud that you had such wonderful
parents!
Sincerely,
Nancy Althouse
I have wonderful memories of Mrs. Frey as told
to me by my mother, Motsy Heilbron. Now, 2 friends have been
reunited. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
