Rose Marie, Alanna mo croi (darling of my heart),
I’m sorry I wasn’t able to make your funeral mass. But you and I shared many sacred graced filled times. You were an enlightened human being and anyone who was fortunate to know you as a friend was enriched. You turned your suffering into love and gave love and compassion to everyone who crossed your path.
So, I thank you for being one of my special teachers on my journey. I believe as you did that the spirits of our loved ones who have “crossed over” are with us always. You often told me over the past year or two that I should remember you as someone who was happy and lived a blessed life. And I will!
I know you’re family was your pride and joy and I know they returned to you the love and care you gave to them. As for nephew Joe, his wife Mary and their family, I’m in awe of the care, love and comfort they gave you—caring for you in their home for the last 4 months of your life! That was a just reward for the life of prayer and goodness that you lived.
I’ll miss our visits Rosie, but, as I just said, you’ll be with me and I’ll be asking you to “mind me” from now on.
Slan agus beanneach!
(Goodbye and blessings!)
Judy

Goodbye to my godmother and Aunt, Aunt Rose Marie. Thank you for nothing but great, positive memories and experiences for the past 58 years. She was always so cheerful and upbeat and she was one of the best persons I have ever known. She never forgot a birthday or holiday and sent a card for Ryan Tinschert, Jo Anne Iungano Tinschert, and I every year. I always looked forward to our talks about the family, the past, and the Mets. She always sounded like she was still in her 30's and was always positive and cheerful. Thank you Charlie Tinschert and Joseph Tinschert for everything you did for her over the years and recently. I'll see you next week. I'm also glad everyone could pitch in for her and make her life a little easier. It would be so great if she's reunited with Grandma, Dad and Mom now. Rest in Peace Aunt Rose Marie. We all miss and Love you.

Today I say goodbye to my Aunt Rose Marie. It’s hard to describe how much one person can mean so much to someone throughout your life. She was hands down the best person I have ever known. It was a pleasure to share my life with her and to be lucky enough to spend years visiting her in here apartment in middle village. Despite being born with an injury that kept her in the hospital until age 6 she was the most positive person I ever knew. Her wisdom, unselfishness and ability to see the good in people was amazing to me. Thank you so much for everything. The world was a better place with you in it.
Rest In Peace.
Love always

Email to Rose Marie's Niece and Nephews...
I met Rosemarie in 1976 when we were both secretaries in a law office. There were four attorneys in private practice and they all shared space. Rosemarie’s and my desks were next to each other. She worked for an ADHD kind of guy who was like the absent minded professor. She had her work cut out for her. We were initially polite to each other, helping if one of us needed it. You have to understand that Rosemarie was 15 years older than I; I was in my late 20s, she in her early 40s. I was a wild child of the 60s generation and she was a college graduate who had been through a lot in her life, so she was pretty settled. Yet, her crazy boss gave us common ground for lots of laughs. But as our conversations during quiet moments progressed, we found a depth of connection about life that doesn’t often get discovered in the workplace. She and I were both readers and both loved ballet. The ballet was the thing that really cemented our friendship. We talked about it and once in a while went to see it together. After we both left that workplace, we continued to go to the ballet on a Saturday. She’d come in, we’d have lunch then go to ballet. Those chats over lunch continued the conversations we’d had at work – we exchanged thoughts on philosophy, family histories, personal histories. She was so non-judgmental, I never feared telling her anything that was sensitive – she was incapable of using any shared information against you.
I was always impressed by her inner strength. When her mother died, I know it was a devastating experience for her. Rosemarie was in her 50s and had never lived on her own. Yet, she negotiated the sale of the house she’d lived in her whole life and moved into an apartment, where she met new people and lived for the rest of her life. She also survived the loss of her brother and sister-in-law, leaving her as the last of her generation. She loved, and often talked about her niece and nephews. I knew something about each of you before I’d ever met you. I told your sister (sorry, my old lady brain went dead and I can’t remember her name) that she was a hero to Rosemarie. Your sister was surprised. Again, you have to realize that when rosemarie was growing up, a woman becoming a police officer wasn’t a concept she could even imagine. And then becoming a nurse when she couldn’t stay on the force showed a level of strength that Rosemarie respected and admired. But all you boys were always part of her conversation, too. She loved you all very much and loved her visits with you all.
I know that you asked about Rosemarie’s work. Well, she was an English major, so I’m sure publishing was a logical path to follow. However, women couldn’t be more than secretaries back then. The fact that she was able to work as a proofreader was a step up. However, publishing is the worst paying job in the world, so if she was to work like a secretary, she decided to be one. In law it paid much better than publishing, so there we were. But that was a job, a paycheck, a way to pay the bills. She found her love, her career when she discovered Feldenkrais. She debated for a long time about doing the training to become a Feldendrais teacher, but she knew it spoke to her and she ignored the advice many people gave her about the cost of the training. She blossomed when she was able to work with people showing them the technique and helping them out of pain.
Around the same time she decided to join the choir at church. Again, she didn’t have much background, but she studied and learned to sight read music and got such pleasure from the singing and community the choir provided.
Overall the words I thought of when you asked about her were strength, devotion and kindness. I will miss her very much.
The day before her funeral, I read a piece in the paper and would like to share this quote:
“Late midlife is a time of loss. If you’re very lucky, the losses are utterly ordinary, completely predictable – parents who die of old age, children who grow up and move on, dogs who live a long time and then can’t live any longer. But being ordinary doesn’t make loss less painful.”
That is what I will leave you with. Her passing was ordinary in the scheme of life, and she is in a better place. I am happy for her. It is we, however, who now live with an emptiness that we will learn to function around, but which leaves us a little diminished. How lucky we were to have had her in our lives, no?
