My dear friend Rose,
You were such an amazing lady. Your body may have aged, but your mind was so sharp and witty. I wish I could have been there to say goodbye, but I know some day I will see you again. We can have lunch, and talk about everything under the son just like old times. We may not have know each other very ling, but it sure felt like I had known you for a lifetime. You taught me so much about life and living, and the history of La Porte too. Everyone is going to miss your hugs and candy. I know I sure miss my special stash of paydays. You will be dearlying missed by so many. Love you lots.
Allison
