I am so saddened to see this. Rose was always the one I knew I could go to at JFS. She certainly always made me feel welcomed and loved.

So sorry to hear of Aunt Rose's passing. She was married to my Uncle Jack for years. I have wonderful memories of OSU Football parties and family gatherings at the holidays!! She was one of kind!

Bill and Cheryl, I was so sad to see the news of Rose's passing this evening. She was quite a gal. I have a lot of memories of all of us working together at ACDJFS. I know it's hard to say goodbye, but I hope you realize you gave her so much as you cared ABOUT her and FOR her. I pray for your comfort and peace.Sincerely, Cheryl Martin

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
