Rose was a good friend and very sweet. I will miss her.
I met Rose when I married her brother Tim. Even tho it was a long time ago I have such fond memories of her. From visiting her and the family in Missouri to her living with us in Clarkston Michigan. She was my awesome sis in law, my hairdresser, my playmate when we loved to play puttputt. Back in the day our kids hung out together and she was my best friend. I remember when she brought Mikey home from the hospital. We use to watch each others kids. Sure wish I knew she wS in Georgia I would have visited her. My condolences go out to her family.
I met Rose when she came here to Beaver Run and she became my big sister. We shared many talks…tears and laughter. God brought her from Michigan to Georgia because God knew I was going to need a close friend when grief hit. She was there more like a sister to me than friend. One of our last memories is our road trip to Macon. It was a gift from God to both of us that day!!! I thank God for the time I knew her so until we meet again…at Heaven’s gate…..I know God has another sweet angel.
Such a sweet woman! I will forever cherish the memories that were made watching little league. Rose brought such joy and laughter to all that she surrounded. RIP sweet lady! You will surely be missed by all
Rose was such a sweet person. I really enjoyed working with her at Home Depot and seeing her at Target. She had a wild side to her which made her fun to be around. I will miss seeing her smiling face in Fenton. RiP my friend.
Words cannot express how I feel . My heart is broken in so many pieces. She will always have a place in my heart. I will miss her terribly. She was always there when I needed her. She knew that she could call me or txt me at any hour . She was my best friend and partner in crime since we were 14 and in the 9th grade. Until we meet again in heaven. Fly high . I love you Rosie ❤️
I will miss you at Beaver Run this winter; your beautiful smile and sweet personality. Rest In Peace Rose 🌹
Rose and I always had our dream to move to myrtle beach. She always had big hugs.
I will miss your fun loving spirt my friend !
Rose had a heart of gold. she would give you the shirt off her back if she knew you needed it. Her quick wit and ready laughter were infectious. She was liked by many and will be sorely missed. Rest In Peace my friend!
I never knew a time when Rose wasn’t in my life. Rose. Joyce and myself was the 3 musketeers. We played together every day when we was young. I Thank the Lord that she was a Christian, I know she was lifted on Angle wings to her Heavenly home. Rest in Peace dear Rose.
