Sending our love, prayers and condolences to Rose’s family.  I loved Rose so very much, as did our mother Barbara Meister.  They were friends and neighbors for years.  So thankful I was able to spend time with Rose and eat a meal together over the holidays.  I will miss her smile, and sweet personality. Mom is rejoicing seeing you again there in Heaven!

Oh Rose…I miss you. I’m glad I got to see you after the holidays and before this COVID-19 mess started. You are now alive and well with your best friend, and my dear Mother, Barbara. Alive and well with Jesus! To Rose’s family; our deepest condolences for your loss. Rose was a wonderful person, a great friend, a gentle soul, and she will be remembered in my heart forever.

Rose Marie was like a second mother to me.  She and my mother were best of friends.  They did a lot of traveling and Rose Marie always accompanied our family to the beach on vacations.  When I would stop out to see mother and Rosie was there, it was like hitting the jackpot.  We also took “girls” weekends to Ocean City and looked forward to spending this time with everyone (of course mother and Rosie were the ring leaders). 
Rosie was an amazing lady and she will be greatly missed.  I had not had the opportunity to visit with Rosie after her move to Brethern  Village but did speak with her on the telephone.  She always was happy to hear from everyone.   
Rosie – you will be missed and you were loved deeply.  Give mother a big hug and kiss from me and please try to stay out of trouble you too (I am sure Marie will be there waiting with open arms).

We are very sorry to learn of Aunt Rosie’s passing. She was always very kind to me in my younger years. In losing Uncle Howdy at such a young age, I know that at times in her widowhood she did not have an easy life. She was a very courageous lady. Cousins Wayne & Carol
