Donna was my Christian Mother. She gave me common sense .. Down to earth advice based on God's word.   She never criticized & always encouraged me. I never ask Donna to help me with anything that she didn't say yes.  On some occasions she should have said no.  Example, the time she frosted my hair (I  ask her to) & I ended up with orange hair. Funny now but not then.  And one time a neighbor who was pet setting our Doberman ask Donna to fill in for her.  Dob was a sweetheart but protective of her home if we weren't there to invite people in. Donna said yes .. Donna was one of a kind" there will never be another!!!
Her wonderful children may be a close second. I love Donna & she will always be with me. I know where she is .. My tears & there are still tears;  are for me, Julian, her children, family & friends. We all were blessed for having her in our lives.

We will not forget the way Donna brightened our lives with her wisdom and her smile!  What a heritage her family has.

Penny, your mother was a wonderful person: the relationship you two had, how you loved her and enjoyed spending time with her -- what a precious example for other daughters. We regret your sadness. May you feel God's tender embrace during this time, you and all of the Rose family members.

Donna was my dearest friend. She still is. We could just look at each other and know what the other one was thinking, most times. One memory that I think of often is the summer we worked together at the Spencerville Camp grounds. It was so hot that summer. We blew up the oven, but we still managed to get all the meals out. In spite of it all we had so much fun together. We always did! I even loved eating burnt grilled cheese sandwiches with her (I wasn't the one who burnt them though). Donna was the main person responsible for me coming to the Rockville Church. I love her and will miss her. But I will see her again one day.

My thoughts & prayers for all of you. Mrs Rose will always have a special place in my heart.

It was my pleasure and privilege to visit Donna at Arbor Manor in the past month or so. It was always an upbeat and enjoyable time. We chatted often about times past and about her precious family. Her love and patience  for Julian was precious. 
I am so thankful for the opportunity to spend time with her. What a witness of the hope of heaven!

So saddened that Dianna and I can't be there to honor Donna in her great "gettin-up morning. " We are both committed to theater projects that are opening this week. I will always remember basking in the glow of Donna 's smile and her laughter. My mom was always a guarded, careful woman, but if anyone could get her to loosen up and be relaxed, it was Donna. She was the living embodiment of the old adage that the more you give love, the more you have to give. What an example for us all!

Dear Rose & Cobb Families, We know and love so many of you and give each of you our condolences in the passing of Donna Lou. We have special memories of Donna Lou, especially when she came with Linda Rose to help me pack for a new church. We had so much Fun!! We are babysitting grand kids this week so will not be able to attend the funeral but our thoughts and prayers are with all of you!  In Christian Love, Elden & Linda Lee

I'm so thankful for the legacy grandma provided for her kids and grandkids. I'll never forget sitting at her feet, listening to her laugh and tell stories about her family - my family! I'm so thankful to belong to the family she helped build. Her joy, people-sense, laughter and perseverance built so much into so many lives, and that will be here long after her kids and grandkids have gone to meet her in heaven.

Marilyn, Pastor, Josh, Sarah and Zach.  So sorry for your loss, but know that your mom (grandma) is free of pain with Jesus.  Our love to all of your family.  Wanda and Walt

So very sorry for your loss. Praying the Lord's comfort and peace for each family member. It is during these times that we have to rest in His arms. Love you all. John and Juanita Hartung Payne

She was my other mother.  I learned many life lessons while spending time at her house. One of the most important was having a relationship with our lord.  She looked after many children. Her job is not finished  now she has a better view.  God speed Rose family. love you

What a beautiful woman of God. When I think of Donna I have a smile that comes to my face. Even though I didn't spend much time with my cousins I was still impacted greatly by the Loving, Godly home they were raised in. Donna I will see you again and thank you for the legacy you left for your family. You will be missed here on earth but we know you are rejoicing and living on in Heaven.

Wonderful loving memories of Donna Rose.  Taking me in as one of her children, sledding down the back hill behind their house, working with her in the dining hall at camp.  Loved her laugh, her smile and her unconditional love for me.

Grandma was a true inspiration. Her joyful attitude was evident no matter what she did. We'll miss you grandma.

Thank you for this woman and the legacy she has left. Bless this family as it continues here. Amen

I am so sorry for your loss.  Please know your family is in our thougths and prayers.

What a great picture of your mom!  She was such a sweetheart.  I remember her great sense of humor and so enjoyed when she and your dad visited with us.  GOD BLESS YOU AND GIVE YOU COMFORT, STRENGTH AND PEACE AT THIS TIME.  She is forever with our Lord.  We love you lots and have you in our hearts.  Aunt Ila and Kathy (FL)
