  • I'm so sorry to hear of Rose passing. Rose had a special place in my heart when I worked at Holy Family, especially when I found out the family connection to Dina Witwicki, my friend from high school. I loved Rose's hugs and will remember how she continued to care for Gloria at HFH. My deepest sympathies to Elsie, Jeanne, Martha and Olga, Dina and family. Rose will be missed. - Posted by: Andrea Grozli (Former Nurse) on: Apr 21, 2016
