I remember her sharing an article from “Ann Landers” that she had cut out of a newspaper and saved for many years:
Some people measure success by their jobs, houses, cars, or money but the “True” measure of success Is..
How your children talk about you to their friends.. . What a success she was then.
She will be missed by the many who shared in her life. There will be no service held for Rosemary per her request. Arrangements were entrusted to Crown Memorial Center in Milwaukie.
