Rosie, Aunt Rosie to our kids, was fun to be with. Her positive outlook on life always shined through. When our friends were visiting Mesa several years ago, we suggested that they have dinner at The Hub. When they returned to St Louis, they had so many stories to tell us about Kenny, Kraig and their families. It turns out that their “new best friend” was Rosie. She was the hostess! Does anyone wonder where Kenny and Kraig got their gift of gab?
Rosie lives on through wonderful memories and we see her influence in the terrific boys that she raised. She was a kind and loving mother that would do anything for her boys. It was fitting that as time passed, Kenny, Kraig and their families would do anything for her.
We love you guys, Uncle Dave & Aunt Barb. (See you soon.)
