I just called the Sudan family to let them know that Mama Rose has passed on. Rose was on call to 24 7 it seemed to help Simon, Mary and their two little girls. Elizabeth is now a Doctor and Martha has degree in accounting and business of some kind. Both girls graduated from St. Thomas in St Paul MN. Simon and Mary had four more children, Simon became Lutheren Minister, he traveled back to Sudan many times to help his people,he pass away from cancer about three years ago. Mary still lives in Albert Lee MN James and Peter live in WA ST John lives here in Des Moines, I still help him when he is in need. If anybody has any pictures of them they would them or copies of them.

I am so sorry for your loss. Rose will be missed greatly. I enjoyed many conversations with Rose, we talked about many things, but I especially enjoyed hearing about her early life with her parents and siblings, and listening to her music.
