Dear Sons and family , Please know that I am grieving her loss with you. I will miss talking and laughing with Rose and hearing her wise Godly encouragement! I always knew that when I asked her to pray about something, it wAs done! She was so very proud of all her sons and their families and would keep me up to date on you all! I am so thankful that God brought her into my life through her devoted caring for my father and other dear ones! I take comfort in knowing that she is rejoicing in heaven with the Savior she adored and reunited with Wilton and those she loved dearly! My heart and prayers are with you all!

To the Quiett, Wisham, and Thompson Family. Our deepest condolences to the entire family. Our prayers and thoughts are with you in your hour of sorrow. Momma Rose was a jewel and we all loved her. She was fun to be around and a joy to have known her. She looked after our mom when she was in ill health and that always stuck with me and my siblings. She was a mom to all of us on the Hamilton side. She will be missed. But we will see here again in our heavenly home. God bless the family. RIP Momma Rose!
