I miss you so much Auntie Rose! You were like a mom to me like Gramma June. All the fun things you did with me & Jen as kids will never be forgotten/those are the things that I can remember. Ceramics, cooking, trips to Yakima, shopping, you are so dearly loved and we will take good care of the rest of the family for you! WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH and MISS YOU! Love, your nieces Traci and baby Ryan Olivia

Most of our friendship was long distance but we made the best of it. I will cherish the time we spent together. You were a wonderful person and special friend.
The last time I traveled to Richland, you didn’t think Sadie would make up to me but she did. I told you she would.
Rose, I will miss you so much. May you rest in peace.
Love
Pam
I was really sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with Rose at PNNL and really enjoyed the times we shared. She was a great lady and VERY proud of her family! We talked alot about kids and Aaron was definitely the apple of her eye. I will miss running into her at the store occasionally but will always remember her smile and quick wit!
I lived next door to Rose for a good part of my childhood. Her Grandson Aaron and I were good friends throughout Grade school. She was always warm and welcoming. Some of my favorite memories of Rose are of her always thinking she had to watch us while we jumped on the trampoline in her back yard and her little green Subaru that she has had since I was 6 years old. To this day I cannot believe that it is still running. Rose was a very special lady and had such a warm heart. My condolences go out to her family.
