My dear friend, you are sorely missed. I can\’t think of a anyone more kind, generous and loving. Your heart was open to all people. Many wonderful parties at your home. Fun times together on the golf course. And, just this Christmas time, riding around looking at the lights in Palm Springs. So many good times together. I cherish the many memories. Joycie
We all, members of Alondra Par 3 Club, will miss Rosemary…her passing is a great loss to all of us.
Words cannot express the sadness that I\’m sure that all of us share at Alondra Ladies Golf Club. Rosemary was a wonderful warm person, & I\’ll always remember this kind and gentle lady, she\’ll be greatly missed by all who knew her. Love, Dottie
Our sympathy goes to Mary K and Ro\’s family. We loved Ro and will miss her so much. She was such a part of our lives, especially as our son Sean\’s godmother and those 25 years at Cal Fed. What wonderful memories we shall always have.
Rosemary was my Godmother. Growing up, I always remember the little things she\’d do for me. On every special occasion, whether it be my birthday, or Christmas, my mom would come home from work, and say “I\’ve got something for you from Rosemary!” always something great! When we\’d visit her house, there was always something good to eat, and lots of love. She was a great person, a successful woman, and will always be very special to me. She will be missed. Sean
