I met your mom at the Oregon Dairy when we shopped there on Saturday mornings years ago.  We would stand and chat and I always enjoyed my conversations with her.  We learned that we had much in common such as being members of St. John Neumann and our love of family.  I lost touch with her when she went into the home and I am sorry for that.  She was a very special person.  I hope you will find peace during this difficult time.  May God be with all of you.  Donna

It was with deepest sympathy we saw of the passing of Mrs. Rossman and although we didn’t know her, we wanted to express our sympathy to Laurie as well as the entire Rossman family. May you find comfort in knowing that others care about you during this time of grief.
Sincerely,
John and Nancy Straw
