and dearest friends Bob and Carolyn Fralick and Bob and Deb Dangoia as
well as many other loving relatives, friends and colleagues. Rose loved her
work as a Psychiatric Nurse and made a huge impact in the field in the
Jacksonville area. She will be remembered for her love of family and pets, the
stories that accompanied the nickname "Big Rose", her Christmas parties and
creating a Florida family from friends and those she held dear. She was a die-hard

Steeler fan, an avid cleaner (yes, she cleaned before the maid came)
and played a mean game Pinocchle and Blackjack. An intimate
