  1. Be assured of my prayers for the family of Rosie.  She was a dear friend of our family especially my sister, Denise and sister in law Rosie Lenihan.  Rosie was a person of deep faith and prayer.  No matter what the occasion Rosie always lit up the room with her joyful and caring personality.   I know she was one of many “Ma Bells”  and loved her work at the telephone company.   If you happen to be a friend of Rosie’s it was for life.  She has sent me a Christmas card faithfully for the past 35 years and when I would be moved to a new assignment she would track me down to get my address.   May Rosie receive the eternal rest and peace she so deserves.
