  1. Rose was a nice mama who will be missed so much and will be remembered as a friend to everybody and a respecting lady ever seen. She used to recognize everybody who passed near her with respect. She was sympathetic and courageous and helpful till the last minute. God bless her family and rest her soul in eternal peace.

  2. I am so sorry to hear that Rose had passed. She was indeed a very gentile lady. We were neighbors in Perry when she and Romain lived a couple of houses down the street. She was always up for making tea and passing a plate of cookies or whatever she might have available. We attended antique auctions together, and my husband and myself enjoyed their company and the knowledge they shared. May God hold her in his hands and bring peace to her loved ones.
