Rosie could always make everyone in the room laugh. I worked with her for several years at Holiday Inn and she was a real sweetheart. You never knew what she was going to say next. She was a one of a kind and I am sure that she will be missed but she will keep them laughing and on their toes up in heaven. Nancy Lyles Sonnier

Miss Rosie you were definitely a character. I can't put on here all the names you called me in the nursing home for talking to Michael but you made me laugh when I really didn't feel like laughing. I will miss you and your big personality and I know you are already cutting up in Heaven. You better not say that nasty word though. I love you Miss Rosie. I am praying for the family because I know you will miss her terribly. Beth Hollis Cassel
