Rose was so helpful during my formative years at Judicial. She shared her baking and cooking masterpieces with me and always loved to talk about family. Her passing is truly our loss.
Lonnie, Carl and Family, Our deepest sympathies go out to you and your family. We have so many fond memories of Rosalie. She was one of a kind. So sorry…
So many hearts are broken with Rosie’s passing. Absolutely a beautiful person.
Rosalie’s Trinidad home that she grew up in was right across the street from mine so I have such fond memories of her and her entire family. Words cannot adequately express my condolences to her family!! Sending prayers for you all. Heaven gained an Angel but all too soon. Rest easy dear Rosalie.
We share in your profound sorrow at the sudden death of “Ro”. It was our honor and privilege to have known her and to enjoy the part she played in our lives. Her smile will always be remembered. May the many happy memories of times gone by help carry you along this path of grief. Praying for comfort and blessings during this time. David, Pam, Megan and ‘ Lil David Keller
She will be missed. God Bless her family and loved ones during this time. I hope you all find peace in her memory.
