So sorry to hear this sad news. My condolences to David and Duane, Cissy, Peter and the rest of the family. My memories of Rosalie go way back to when Debbie, Cissy and I were at St. Mark’s, then Gerard. Our parents all knew each other very well.

To condolences to this amazing family, Rosalie was someone i had the honor of meeting when I was 15- she was tough but kind, she was stern but would make you laugh with her comments and she was a family person and always made sure you felt welcome and a part of hers. I had the pleasure of being a part of her family (her daughter debbie- was like my second mom) and i know how much she meant to all of them. Rosalie you will be missed but i know you are up in heaven with Deb..both of you looking down on all of us

Dear amazing family,
Please accept my condolences for your loss. I knew Rosalie very little, but I’m always amazed at the amazing family that she started, where all of you are so impressively connected with your family gatherings, and respect that you have for each other.
Christina and I grew to love you all, and we believe that the parents have most, of not everything to do with family “closeness”, so, thank you Rosalie for the amazing family you created, and thank you Mia, Adam and everyone else, who keep us close to you to enjoy Rosalie’s legacy.
May she rest in peace!
Kisses and hugs to you all!
Chris Angulo
My condolences to the Angulo and Salcido families in the passing of their beloved Rosalie.

I’m so sorry for the loss of your loved one. I’m sharing an Scripture in hopes it will bring you comfort.
