It’s hard to believe you are gone 5 years. I think about all the fun times and crazy antics we shared often! I miss you my friend!

Rosie was a very dear friend who I continue to miss as the years pass. Her humor and wisdom were always a source of solace and support for me.  

My deepest sympathy to Rosemary's family. I met Rosemary when I was on a retreat team with the Paulist Fathers in New Jersey in 1970.  Rosemary stayed in touch over the years. I sent a Christmas card this year and discovered through our friend Joanne of her passing.  Rosemary was a true inspiration and never forgot to send a card for my birthday and Christmas.  She was an unforgettable light that has shined over the years and will continue to do so.  I will greatly miss her and I am at a loss for words this evening.  

Ms Duffy was my fourth grade teacher. If I’m not mistaken it was in 87/88. She was stern but sweet to me. I remember her fondly. She read to our class. My fondest memory is when she read Willy wonkas chocolate factory. I loved her interpretation. May she Rest In Peace. 

Rosemary was a special person. So sorry to hear of her passing. May all your happy memories always remain in your hearts.


Oh so many memories- crazy times that we had both at St Agnes and at Queensborough.  She was always such a sweetheart so talented and although we kept in touch I wish we would have kept in touch a little more I was truly hoping to reconnect with her this coming year at our 50th reunion. I will truly miss her but I'm happy to know that she is no longer in any pain.

I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR OF THE LOSS OF YOUR DEAR ROSEMARY. THE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES OF THE DUFFY FAMILY BROUGHT BACK FOND MEMORIES OF CHILDHOOD ON 195TH STREET. 
PLEASE KNOW THAT YOU ARE ALL IN MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.
MARYANN (MANLEY) MCKEON

We first met in September 1967 at St Agnes HS and became lifelong friends. We shared so much of life through the years.  She will always hold a special place in my heart. 

To all the Duffy family - so sorry to hear about Rosemary. She was always so friendly with a kind smile! Will remember her and all your family in my thoughts and prayers. From your old neighbor on 195th street. Theresa Manley
