    Sincere condolences to Rose’s family on behalf of the Lee family- Chester, Mary Kate, Charles, Brian, and Jennifer all loved Rose so very much. I remember how fun it was to visit her at Leeters & thinking: Is this laughing, fast -talking lady for real?! She’s amazing! And then she would whisper things to me about my grandparents lol. Today, thinking of her still makes me smile & feel hugged. Thank you, Rose.

    A great lady, a warm heart. It was always comforting to be in her company. Her funeral was just beautiful, and I could “feel” her warmth even though she had gone on to Heaven. Much sympathy to all who will miss her forever.
