Dearest Aunt Rose, You were the last remaining sibling of my father, Charles Caruso. That very last link to my Dad. Although it has been many years since I last saw you, the time did not erase you from my heart. You were in my thoughts more than you could ever imagine and I wished I could have taken the trip to see you. You and Uncle Jack opened your home to my sister,Suzanne, all those years ago when she came to live with you to attend college. She loved living there and 
I enjoyed the stores she shared with me. You were a wonderful inspiration to her. Dad often recalled the rough life you had before he, Uncle Al and Aunt Josephine could get the family back to the US. Even after you arrived back here things were not easy for you and Aunt Helen. My deepest condolences go out to your family. I know Uncle Jack is telling his best jokes to our family members who have passed before us and my Dad is adding his two cents! I love you Aunt Rose.

Rose Julia Calista, friends called you Rose, Uncle Al, and your siblings called you Rosie, dad called you Gina. On August 20, 1977, I called you Mom. From that Saturday in August until January 11, 2018, I never called or referred to you as anything other than Mom.
Mom, I just want to thank you and dad for giving me the approval to marry your first born daughter, Donna, aka Princess on that day.
Mom, thank you from this Redneck, 25 year old to know, learn, and see the true meaning of what life is all about. You and dad taught me there's only a few things to live for,and they are Faith, Love of Good Friends, but what is most of all the family. I hope Donna and I over the 40 plus years have lived up to you and dads expectations. With yours and dads guidance we have tried to raise our sons with these rules to follow.I hope we didn't disappoint you and dad.
Losing my father at an early age I will always cherish dads words. "I will never or try to replace your father, but I will always be your dad, and your response was "I'll always be your mom". 
With all my love and respect, enjoy being in the arms of the man that loved you from day one, and although the family, friends and I will miss you, mom you will along with dad will always be in our thoughts and our hearts. 
Love you, 
Richard

Mother, where do I began. I thank you for giving me life and the wonderful life I had with you. It's only been a week and my life has been turned upside down. I have nothing to regret I did everything in my power  to give you the quality of life you deserve. Nobody other than family knows how hard a life you had. There is not enough thank you's in the world to thank you for the love you have given me, my family, my grandchildren and all you came in contact with. Bocoo Mom. Kiss my dad for me and tell him I love and miss him too. Until we met again. Princesss

If Roses Grow in Heaven
By Dolores M. Garcia

If roses grow in heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.

Tell her I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.

Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.

I Love you Mom

I loved Rosie so much. She loved everyone that crossed her path. May God give all of you the strength to cope & comfort you all in your sorrow. God bless you.

The rose was created on the third day, early in the morning when the Almighty was especially full of good ideas."

My aunt Rose was a beautiful gift to our family and will be sorely missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. I was just thinking of ma alot last week. I have always missed her and often thought about what a good person she was. I still have the rosary she gave me at my communion. Please except my condolences and the family is in my prayers. She used to love Lionel Richie if I remember correctly.
      Sincerely, Bob Heegel

May God's loving kindness comfort you and help you through this very sad time
Psalms 29:11
