Oh Aunt Rosemary, I love you! I am going to miss you here, but I know now you are in the company ofJesus, receiving the ultimate reward so promised by God! Claudia, Cari, Curt, My heart goes out to you guys. I sincerely am sorry for the loss of your mother. Donna said she had a wonderful Celebration of Life! I am glad. I would have loved to have been there, but being on oxygen plus a very bad neck makes long travel difficult for me. Please know my thoughts were with you, and as you left the church for the cemetery, Donna texted the 3 of us not there with a picture of the front of the memorial card. What a great picture of Aunt Rosemary! I will pray that your grieving process is not difficult & that you can accept it for what it is. We all grieve differently. When my brother Gary passed I couldn’t even get dressed to go to the actual funeral; I was too distraught. With Mom it wasn’t until the anniversary of her death that I started crying all day. If any of that helps. I sure miss all the get-togethers of yesteryear! Its hard to believe that we are now THE generation, you know - the Old Farts!! With Love, Gail Aunt Rosemary was special to me. She was encouraging to me in my teen years which helped me grow out of those “awkward” years. I’ve really missed seeing her & Uncle Doc
