Dear Bill and family, I send my heartfelt condolences across the sea from America. What a special soul Rose was. I will never forget her bringing hand made shearling slippers for my son when she and Bill came to the USA to visit with my beloved parents, Natalie and James. She was so thoughtful and kind. Rose also taught me how to make crepes in my mothers kitchen. We had such fun. There are some people who cross your path in this life and they leave a very warm impression. Rose really was a gem. She is home with God now and whole again. I can see her smiling along side my parents. I am keeping you all in my prayers. Rest in eternal Peace beautiful lady. You are loved and never to be forgotten. Hug my mom and dad for me would you? I know they are happy to see you again. With love and fond memories, Melissa Roughgarden
