My sincere condolences to Rosemary’s family. I met Rosemary thru the Il Divo Forum and met her in person once in Dallas at a concert. We have became friends after that. She is the most beautiful and generous person I have ever met. May you Rest in Peace my dearest friend. I will miss you so much. I love you Rosemary.
Linda my deepest sympathy and prayers for you and your family I’m sure you know how much your mom meant to our family and over the years family lines became blurred because we all felt that we were part of the same ffamily.

The line ‘Rosemary never met a stranger’ makes me smile. I always admired how she and Dick just up and moved to help take care of their grandchildren. Nick says, ‘he enjoyed her enthusiasm for following one of her favorite European Bands.’ We always laughed together. We had a lot in common-sharing time with friends and family, food, music and dare I say The Hallmark Channel Movies! I became a Grandmother this year and she will be an inspiration.
Rosemary and I met when I began working at a savings & loan in Ft. Lauderdale in the late 60’s. She and Dick were dear friends from the beginning of our friendship. She gave a baby shower for me when I became pregnant with our first child in 1970, and even though we both moved to different areas of the country later on, we were always visiting and talking by phone. I will miss her wonderful family stories, and her unique laugh. May she rest in peace always, with Dick beside her. Suzanne & R.J. Ogren, Chicago, IL
