Rosemary's life was grounded on a foundation of "family" that reflected through her benevolence and consideration for others. Her simple, yet brilliant view on life allowed her to enjoy every day and battle cancer with grace. She promised her family she would never give up her fight, and she kept her promise. She never complained and even through her battle her family and their well-being were always her main concern.

Rosemary found joy from eating with her family, holding her grandson, and shopping with her sisters. She taught her family that these simple and important activities in life bring about true happiness.
She had a tremendous positive impact on her sons' lives, as well as the people who knew her well. She was modest and loved by many and her contagious positive attitude will always be remembered.
