Rosemary is my cousin and I (Chris) have many fond memories of us growing up in Galveston. I would go to my Aunt and Uncles house on 17th Street and visit many times. Her parents were my Godparents. She was a wonderful person and always had a smile and a kind heart. She would always call me Christy. She will be missed very much by all who knew her. With sadness and heartfelt sympathy

Aunt Rosemary's smile and great stories are what I will alway remember. She had such amazing and funny things to tell, when she talked about what God had done for her in all life's adventures it would bring tears to my eyes. She loved her family and our Lord. I will miss her, uncle Bobby & cousins I love you, my heart is sad for this loss in our family. Aunt Rosemary enjoy your new home.

I was a classmate of Rosemary & will always remember her for her
courage in handling the trials God gave her. Even after 50 years of
not always being in contact, she will always be a constent reminder of trusting in God's way. May she rest in Peace.

SPRING BREAK

June 3, 2013

I loved Aunt Rosemary like she was my mother.  I will really miss her.  She made spring break the BEST spring break ever.  I will always remember her smile and her funny personality. We had so much fun that day on the beach feeding the seagulls. She will always be in my heart and mind:(. CAITLYN BALL

...but I still have some battery left!!

June 3, 2013

   When aunt Rosemary would feel like talking, she'd tell uncle Bobby to get me on the phone. One day I had gotten some of my voice back and she was feeling good so she called me. We talked about old memories and funny things that we'd done and just enjoyed our conversation. My mom (Mary Ann) came through the house  4 hours later and said, "Are you guys still on the phone?". :)  I told mom that I still had some battery left so we kept on talking and laughing. We had a good time that day. She was so excited about the family cookbook and we had a lot of planning to do.
   I'm so thankful that I got to have this relationship with my aunt Rosemary and I will miss it. But I will always treasure the times we had. 

                                                                                          Love You, Renee'
