Rose, or Rosie as she was called by everyone, was the happiest sweetest girl. She always had a smile on her face and loved everyone. Her laugh was infectious, when you heard it, you couldn’t help but smile. She could also be quite stubborn and have a temper as any four-year-old would. Rosie was always on the go, she loved to play pretend, watch videos on her phone, and loved doing all types of activities outside. Rosie was fearless, most things a little girl was scared of, she wasn’t. Rosie would always try to catch the lizards and bugs if she caught them, she would have to bring them to show you. She loved playing in the dirt and mud, she loved to collect rocks, we would find rocks everywhere. She would climb anything she could climb then get stuck and someone would have to help her.

She loved her sister; she would always try to pick her up and play with her. Rosie never called her sister Faith she always called her my baby. Rosie will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her. She will always be in our hearts and never forgotten. We love you Rosie, rest easy sweet angel, until we see you again.
