Special thank you to The Betel Home Foundation for their outstanding care and compassion to Rose; we can’t thank them enough for the personal care they provided and the great staff for sharing their human spirit, making Rose’s hard days more comfortable to manage.
Rose’s end of life care was well thought out. She grew softer as the days grew short. Kindness, gratitude and thinking of others were her greatest parting gifts.
We’re at peace, knowing her pain is gone and she is reunited with her one and only true love.
We love you Mom & Grandma and so grateful for the life you shared with us Xo
Cremation has taken place and a private family Interment will follow at a later date.
“Your smile doesn’t belong to you, it belongs to the world”
