Rose and I worked together at Canteen and shared many rides home together on the el. We shared family stories and traditions and I know how much her family meant to her. We still kept in touch after all these years. My prayers are with her family as they have a great loss.

Roie - you were always the best at playing games. You taught me board games and card games that I will be teaching my boys. You left a legacy of fairness and compassion. Your game playing abilities will go down in our family's history. And the fact you beat my brother in the very last game you played with him is poetic justice at its ultimate best. I think some how you knew this was the ultimate show of superiority in the area of game playing. You beat me also in the last backgammon game we played in the hospital and I would not have had it any other way. I tip my hat off to you Roie. You were the best in every way. I will miss you forever ...and a day. Your niece Lisa

You won the last backgammon game we played and it still bothers me. I love you Roie and miss you more than you can imagine....Danny Boy

How sorry I was to read of Dolly's passing. It's been a long time since we've seen her but always will remember her with her Mom and the deep respect that they showed for everyone in their time of need.

Sincerely,

Lennie and Patty Colella
