  4. Hiram Lester & Gayle Glover says:
    Rosie was a good friend. Gayle Glover and I met her at the Mt. Juliet Sr. Center jam session where we all went on Thursday afternoons. We would visit with her occasionally, but after the Covid lockdowns stopped the jam sessions, we didn’t see much of her. Gayle and I would call her about once a week, and we would talk for 30 minutes or more; she loved to talk, and always looked forward to our calls. Sadly, near the end, she seemed like she didn’t really feel like talking a lot. Rest in peace, good friend!
