Dear Don and Tracy,
I know how much your mom meant to the two of you. The stories you shared with me about the love, caring and relationship was life giving to both of you. She was a special your guide in your life's journey. I have a feeling she was that to many. May God comfort the two of you and all of her family. She will always bring you joy in the telling of stories of your journey together. I hope you do it often. With love,

Aunt Rose was a very funny and happy person to be with. While it is sad she has left us, she is in peace and under the good care of our Lord. God bless her and all of those that were saddened by her passing. Also, I hope the best macaroni salad continue as that was a great tasting Aunt Rose dish. I remember that from camping days with the Crouches...good family memories.
