Rest in peace Dear Cousin. I have such great memories of Rosemary when we both lived as children on 11 Caroline Avenue. I have wonderful memories of our lunches in Issaquah, Washington, when she would come with Jim on Costco business. Rosemary sparkled with her wonderful smile and laughter. My thoughts and prayers are with Jim, her daughters and brothers. May you all find comfort in wonderful memories of Rosemary. Cousin Lois

My heart goes out to Rosemary's husband, Jim, and her family. I shall miss my buddy, our talks on her porch, our adventures and the twinkle in her eye. What a pleasure to know this dear lady as my friend. My consolation is that she knew our Lord, and Savior. We will meet again. Praise God.

Even though I live on the West Coast, I always enjoyed hearing news from Rosemary about her children and grandchildren that she was so proud of. Rosemary was so cheerful and I felt so close to her with those phone calls. She also kept me informed about our other relatives in the East. I will really miss those calls and I know she is in a better place!! With love, your cousin, Ella Forbess (Vancouver, Washington)

My Aunt "Sissy," as I've always known her, was anything but. She commanded the room when she spoke, which is impressive in our boisterous family. I will always remember her smiling and laughing and enjoying life.

Rosemary will be deeply missed by all her friends and family who worked with her at Textron. She and I always took walks together and talked about everything that was going on before I retired. She will be deeply missed by all of us past and present. Her smile was infectious to all. My deepest sympathies to Jim and her family.
