Bob Woodward recruited me from Data General in 1982 to be the Federal District support manager. A year later, Rosalie lured me away to become the technical support manager for the CIA account. I learned much about the importance of looking at issues from the customer's perspective. When a security failure of one of our Tempest computers was detected and confirmed, Rosalie worked tirelessly with me using her authority and savvy to coordinate the swapping out of ALL of the computers manufactured in the same lot and their replacement with new ones at no cost to the customer. For me, it was a frightful experience but for Rosalie, it was just another few days of long hours at the office.

Wang 1982-1987

Rosalie was a very special person. So fun loving and kind. She hired me at Wang Laboratories in 1972 and guided me along the way to a wonderful career (19 years). I have very fond memories of my years working with her.

wonderful memories of this beloved Lady...

When I started at Wang Labs, I was young and impressionable. Rosalie, along with Diane Bergeron, were my role models. Rosalie was larger than life. She lit up a room, she had a generous spirit, she was full of energy and fun; yet she was also an amazing business woman who breezily held her own in a male-dominated upper management world. I smile as I remember her, and I know, as good mentors and role models often do, she in some way helped shape the person that I am today. Older and wiser, but hopefully still carrying a little glimmer of Rosalie Papoutsy with me each day. For that, thank you, Rosalie. May you rest in peace in a heaven that is even brighter with your presence.

Adventurous and generous certainly describe Rosallie's spirit. While on this earth, she experienced in her years more than most ever will. Seeing her in these posted photos illustrates this, and they give me joy. Rosallie lived for her work, but her travels, her life experiences, her beloved family and friends and her faith are what sustained her. Rest in peace, dear Rosallie.

Solvenia with the vermont girls and the wonderful meeting up with the "Greek" girls. Rosalie in her cashmere night wear, shopping, talking and sharing in her adventures. I still have the coat she made me buy which she said would never go out of style. She was right . What a joy to have shared some memories with her.

So many wonderful memories of our trip to Slovenia with Rosalie...such laughter! I can see her "in charge" of something in heaven!!

Rosallie will be missed. She had a wonderful way of connecting with people. Many memories from those days at Wang Laboratories.

Rosalie---Lifelong devoted friend, you will be missed by your "Koumbaro" Always remember---" I am the resurrection and the life;whoever believes in Me,even if she dies, will live,and everyone who lives and believes in Me---WILL NEVER DIE. JOHN 11:25-26
                           Rest in Peace Dear Friend, Niko

My memories of Rosallie are carried close to my heart. I joined Wang as a young manager and she took my under her wing. She taught me how to be a tough yet compassionate leader and the importance of understanding the politics of your work environment. Long after I left Wang, she continued to serve as a mentor. I will be forever grateful for the opportunity of working with her. Heaven has welcomed home one of its angels!

May this beautiful Women full of Love and Spirit be dearly remembered in Love...
