I know at times like this it is hard to see past the sorrow, but I hope that reflecting on the wonderful memories you and your mom shared will help you to see the light again. My deepest sympathies for your loss

Grandma, I know you’ve been waiting to be with grandpa for a very long time and I hope you all are laughing together and enjoying each other. It’s going to be really difficult to not have either one of you to go too. I am forever grateful you called me your angel in your last days and I am honored to have you as my guardian angel as you look down upon me and my family. I love you to the moon and back forever and always.

I remember Rosemary in so many of my childhood memories. She was a great friend to my mother and a wonderful woman overall.

Our thoughts and prayers for your family during this difficult time. Rosemary was such a sweet lady who lovingly cared for her family. I am so sorry I will not be able to attend either the visitation or mass.
