Rose loved friends, bowling, music, dancing, casinos, and the lottery, but most of all her children.

A cute aside... she lived at Ed's house the last few years. Rose had a stationary bike which She loved to ride. She would proudly tell us (happily) that she rode 5 miles every day. But... the odometer said .5! Bless her heart! She will be greatly missed by all!
