  1. Cindy, Roy, Brian and family, I write this with a the heaviest of hearts. Your mother was as bright and fun as a yellow rose, yet delicate and precious as a pink, and passionate and fiery as a red. Not only did she look after the three of you, she deeply cared for the five of us. I can hear her roughing laughter when telling funning stories of Dad and her adventures. The tenderness when she spoke of the love she had in her heart for my father. Let’s not forget the and ahhhh let’s go have some fun side either. Rose will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. May she lift the heavens higher with her spirt and enrich it with her soft loving soul. Heaven is a more joyful place having her as a angel. May we all reflect, heal, and rejoice on the time we spent with her on this heavenly earth. Amen 🙏

  2. Mrs. Donoghue was such a wonderful, caring neighbor & friend for the past 20 years. I will miss her terribly. My heart goes out to her beautiful family. My thoughts & prayers are with you all.
