I was so very sorry to hear of the death of my dear friend, Rosalie. I taught math across the hall from her for many years at McAdam’s Junior High School. We enjoyed quick visits between classes while on hall duty and many long talks in private at other times. She was such a wonderful human being and a great teacher who influenced many students with the “love of learning”. She will not be forgotten. May the Lord bless you with His peace.
Randy, Phyllis and all the Ferguson family, our thoughts and prayers are with each of you at this time of loss in your lives, may our precious Lord bless each of you and sustain you with wonderful memories.

I REMEMBER AS KIDS , WE ALWAYS PLAYED BALL, BESIDE THEIR HOUSE ON GALVESTON STREET. SHE ALWAYS HAD REFRESHMENTS FOR US.. SHE WAS A GREAT ASSET TO PEARLAND.. MY PRAYERS TO THE FAMILY.
Like Ginny, I, too, taught with Rosalie at McAdams. She taught me how to be a teacher. She always told to me to love the students more than the subject matter. I followed her advice, and I still love the students. Thank you Rosalie; I will miss you.
To the Ferguson Family
Mrs. Ferguson was a very special lady to both of us. We shared so many wonderful times and travels with her and Dr. Ferguson. We shared laughter and tears through these years. It is with great sadness that we mourn her passing but with great satisfaction that she is now in the arms of her Saviour and those who have gone on before her who she loved so dearly.
We extend our warmest sympathy to all of you.

What a great lady! I taught next door to Rosalie at McAdams Jr. High in Dickinson many, many years ago. I always appreciated her can-do attitude and so sunny disposition. She truly is unforgettable.
To the Ferguson Family:
I am really sorry to read about Mrs. Ferguson’s passing. May Our Dear Lord be with all of you during this time of grief. May God Bless You.
Our prayers are with you in your grief. May God comfort and sustain you

I worked with Rosalie for many years while she was at McAdams Junior High in Dickinson. I have many fond memories and have my share of “Rosalie stories”. She gave her English classes her all, and as a new teacher, I learned many disciplinary techniques from her. I wish you God’s peace as you are seperated from her while you are left on earth, but I know that there will be a joyful homecoming for her. You will be in my prayers.
To the Fergurson:
I am very sorry to read about the loss of Mrs. Rosalie.Please allow these words to comfort
you.”With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”
Revelation 21:3,4
