Our beloved daughter, sister and aunt was taken from us, at such a young age. We will all miss her very much. But we know in our hearts that she's moved on to a better place. Rosie was loved by all who knew her. She may be gone but she lives in all of us. She enjoyed riding her bike and playing Super Nintendo. We will miss her beautiful smile and hearing her laugh.
