I worked with Rose for a short time when she was at the national Center for Healthy Housing. It was at the time that her daughter was planning her wedding, and I remember how proud and excited she was. She had a great smile! I hope her family will find comfort in the memory of that smile.

Our paths first crossed when Rose worked at HI-AYH and I was on the local board. For years after that, we would see each other at Association of Fundraising Professionals events and parties of mutual friends. One day, she invited me to join her book group, in that typical, wonderful Rose way she had of bringing people together. She opened me up to a new group of fun, interesting people - as well as fascinating books. We became Facebook friends and I saw how she embraced life to the fullest. I saw her love of family and friends, her hiking and biking adventures, her commitment to public service. We talked just a few months ago, catching up on our recent job changes. Some people live life - Rose embraced life, grabbing it by the horns and getting as much out of it as possible. I am so sorry she wasn’t able to have more of that life, and my deepest condolences to Emily, Allison, Dale, Bryan, Teresa and all who loved her. She left an imprint on so many of us, and I’m grateful that I knew her.

As programming opened across the state for about a year now, Rose traveled from Garrett County, seeing our 4-H camp to Fairs on the shore and in southern Maryland and upwards to the northern counties and Baltimore City to see all of Maryland 4-H. Rose met many new people with her warm smile and easy-going manner. We planned on doing lunchtime walks at the new trail down the street. She talked so fondly of her daughters, Allison and Emily, and her partner Dale, her Mom, and always looked forward to when she would see her grandson. I will miss her spirit of service to others and her kindness—my deepest condolences to all of her family and friends.

I first met Rose when we both lived in Berwyn. Although our kids were different ages, we saw each other in the park or at neighborhood and civic association events. Later, after I started working for the City of College Park, we interacted through her membership on City advisory boards. I am shocked to learn of her loss, and send my deepest condolences to her family and loved ones.
