We all gathered to celebrate the life of Hubby's granny, a woman who I only knew for a short period of time but a woman who made an impact on so many lives. Rosie was a woman who loved the color pink & this was certainly not forgotten during the joint visitation/funeral yesterday afternoon. Many of her friends dressed in pink to honor her & Hubby even brought out his pink shirt and tie for his granny.

Instead of the service being one filled with sadness, the pastor illustrated what a full life Rosie had lead & how much fun she was probably having in heaven with her husband Dick. Pastor Swaggerty's last comment was that maybe if Rosie was lucky, really lucky...God sprinkled the streets of gold with a few pink diamonds to welcome her home.
We'll miss you Rosie, but we'll see you again in paradise!
