Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. Rosalind was such a lovely person and our prayers are with all the Sheehan boys and Donna. As we all get older they say passing away is expected but it is still hard to accept especially when you come from a neighborhood like ours where everyone from our grandparents, parents, aunts and uncles and of course all of us were so close. My heart breaks every time on of our friends passes away. Please accept our heartfelt sympathies!

My heart is heavy with sorrow. To the Sheehan and Granato Families, I extend my sincerest condolences. I will miss you, Ros. I will miss our talks on the phone, and my visits to you with Debbie. Be at peace and you are finally with your Dave. I know he was there for your beautiful homecoming. I love you. RIP
