Rose at our family reunion in 2005
Rose all smiles at our family reunion in 2005
I met Rose for the first time when she and her friend Barbara came to Athens. From the photo, it must have been early 70s. I was in aw with how confident she was. She looked beautiful. She had the most perfect manicure I had ever seen. She seemed to be enjoying life. Though I got closer to her when she was already quite ill and debilitated, she was always very careful about her appearance and had everything under control. She was always dressed when I'd visit her even if it was exhausting to do so. She really took to technology and used her iphone like a pro. I mean, she would even have reminders that it was time to change the vacuum cleaner bag. She had a way she wanted everything to be maintained and stuck to it until the very end. She liked to go out for dinner and she would amaze me with her appetite. She liked to have a cocktail and good food and wine and then desert. At her gym, they told me that she was an inspiration to everyone. She would drive to the gym and work ou
What a wonderful occasion. I think she was really happy that we managed to pull that off. So many of us made it to that reunion.
