    Dear Edward, Sharon and Ken:
    Please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of Rosetta. I always remember her as a kind and caring person.
    Rosetta’s mother Ada, was a niece of my great-grandparents, and once Ada moved to Ilderton and London, I kept in touch by phone mostly. May you all be uplifted by the memories of a dear mother.
    I am very grateful that you published the obituary in a Chatham newspaper, as I would not have known otherwise.
    Colleen and Doug Smith
