A lot of people don’t know that Rose did not birth me. She was my stepmom and was the one that raised me from a very early age. She was the only mom I knew for many years. My mother didn’t come into my life until very later on when I was a young adult. Rose was, is, an always will be, my mom. I love and miss her dearly.It’s hard to think of her being gone because I thought she would live on for a long long long long time. Even though we didn’t always see eye to eye I thought very highly of her. I am happy she’s finally out of all her pain and suffering. And I hope she knows how much she was loved and is missed by everyone that knew her.
