I feel so blessed that our paths crossed back in 2016 and we became such good friends. I will treasure the wisdom you gave me and all the memories we shared.
I love you and will keep you in my heart always
Heaven has a new angel.

I loved Rosalie and at the age of 94 she was still a spitfire and could out eat everyone eating crawfish . I will definitely miss her dearly but knowing she’s been reunited with the love of her life and in Jesus’ arms brings us much comfort. See ya on the other side Rosie.
She was such a lovely woman, so full of grace. I loved spending time on Reed Road many moons ago with Rosalie, Mr. Greco and you Greco boys. Mrs. Greco could always find humor in (most of) our childhood antics. I feel blessed to have known her. Much love to you Paul, Steve & PJ, and to the entire Greco family.
