I'm so sorry to hear of Rose's passing. She was the sweetest lady I've ever known. I was the secretary in PNGISD Maintenance Departmennt when she was the custodian at Van Buren and she was always so sweet to me when she'd call for help. She always sent me the most beautiful Christmas gifts, some that I still have and decorate with every year. Gods blessings to the family. I know she will be missed very much. Sue Green, Groves, Texas

Condolences to all. Rose was a schoolmate, being 2 years ahead of me in school but she was a joyful person to be around, and very pretty. Always nice to others. God rest her sweet soul. Keep your precious memories close to your hearts. Sincerely, Dianne Hollier

We have lost a wonderful friend. Rose and her husband John were not only our neighbors but co-workers for many fun and happy years. They are truly missed.
