My deepest condolences to the entire Grana family,i will always remember Mrs. Grana fondly. She loved her family and was a champion of her children.Thanks for the cast parties Mrs.G.!
I will always remember going to Dickens for Lobster bisque with Grandma/Grandpa and Aunt Rosemary as a child. And jumping on her lap when I was afraid of a bee just after she had surgery one time in the car with her. Memories never die.
Love Robin
Dear Gary and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Keep the special memories close in your heart.
A wonderful woman who will be sadly missed. I always enjoyed tea and cookies when visiting!
A recent friend, too soon gone. Spent many a Sunday eve with Rosemary and Will, laughing and baiting one another, sharing good food and bad, swapping stories and film reviews. Vivacious, regal, always dressed in dreamy colors that highlighted her beauty, Rosemary was queen at our table. She and will taught us exactly how to grow old: never stop enjoying everything and everyone. Oh how I will miss her!
My deepest sympathy to you all and Will.
Sending all my love and hugs to everyone. It was so awesome loving and knowing Rosemary. Know you are all loved.

Dear Family and Will,
I had the honor of meeting your mother and loved one at Aurora House and knew that Rosemary was a very beautiful soul from the start. I was sad that you were losing your mother and so much more. I’m sorry for your loss and I believe she is no longer struggling and has become one with peace and beauty. Love to you all . Sincerely, Chris McEntee
My deepest sympathies are with your family at this time. May Rosemary rest in peace. She will always be with you in all your memories…
Cheryl & family, so sorry to hear about your mom. She was a sweet and kind lady, beautiful inside and out. God Bless you all.
I love you Sissy. I will miss you forever. My sister, my friend, you will be in my heart forever. I have such beautiful memories. Love, Pat

RIP Sissy: i will always have you in my heart with alot of memories Love always until we meet again
My dear Sissy
We shared many happy times together. When I go to a garage sale or even see a sign, or watch birds, I will think of you with tears in my eyes and a smile on my face. With time the tears may fade but the smile will last forever, just as my love for you. I miss you so much. Your beautiful blue eyes and your smile will last throughout my life. Though this end is what you wished I still can not believe you are physically gone. I know you are still with me and watching down on me. Rest in peace…..no one deserves it more than you.
Love
Joy
Sissy, Every morning I think of you when I look out my kitchen window and see the birds at the feeder. Oh how you loved birds! I will miss you a lot. Rest in peace. I love you.
Sharon
My dearest Sissy,
I will always remember with great fondness our Monday night visits – either watching dancing with the stars or old movies or listenining to old records. It was a pleasure having you for my sister and friend. I will miss you always. I love you! Rest in peace!
Love Kathy
