Our Musical Theatre Production of 42nd Street was a richer and funnier experience because Rosemary and Daphne were together doing the props! All those suitcases and those flower circlets! And such a bouquet of wonderful children! Daphne and Kevin Bice

If you think about love and kindness / that was Rosemary.
I had the pleasure of working along side of her in the PACU at St Joe’s.
I will treasure our laughs / our critical thinking when working in a high level environment / and her warmth.
She was an awesome nurse.
Feeling blessed that I knew her and worked with her.
May her smile and her love of life / blanket the family / with the same warmth / as you move through this loss of an amazing lady.
Wishing you peace and love

Mary and family, please accept my heart felt condolences for the loss of your Mom. In the short time that I knew Rose, she was an absolute delight to be around. Her sense of humour and that glint in her eye was such a part of Rose. She had us in stitches so much of the time. Your journey here on earth has ended and your heavenly journey has just begun. Fly high Rose and keep up that sense of humour. Love Sue xoxo

Rozie, you were such a kind and lovable person and Patti and I will miss you dearly. Always a smile and the bright side of any situation were the way that you dealt with life. You raised an amazing family and will be so dearly missed by them. Wishing you much peace on your next journey.
Heather MacVoy
Mama, you shared with me a memory of being around age 4 when you first realized that giving a person your own genuine, heartfelt smile, meant you invariably received a genuine smile back! You said it energized you to smile at people. Mama, I think your joyful smile was always so authentic that no one could resist smiling back at you. I’ll always remember experiencing your beautiful smiles, along with feeling your unconditional love and generosity of spirit. Your charming ways, genuine kindness to all and your amazing sense of humour have been such blessings to all of us who have loved you. Rest in Peace, Beloved Mama. Much Love from your eldest daughter, your forever Valentine, Heather Eileen.
