Aunt Rose was a beautiful soul. She asked for nothing and always gave. Aunt Rose will be missed dearly. We are so thankful she is no longer in pain and is singing with the angels. We love you Aunt Rose! Todd, Julie, Trey, and Madelyne

Rosie-
Words cannot express what a difference you have made in my life. You were like a second mother to me, a sister, and one of the dearest friends I know. I am so honored to have known you and I will cherish our memories forever. You are one of the strongest women I know and I know you are now at peace.
I love you with all of my heart and I know one day we will meet again.
Love always,
Heba Baldwin

I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the family. Ms. Rose was a true joy for me at work. Such a caring, loving and fun person to be around. Always concerned about you and ready to help. She was my work mother. I am truly blessed that our paths crossed and that God placed her in my life for a reason. I love her and she will be deeply missed. -Ms. Monique Randolph
