Rosie along with her good friend Nick had a dj/ karaoke show and would sing and lead the line dances for the various events throughout San Diego County.

She was the most faithful San Diego Padres fan we have ever known and would never miss a game. She loved her team, win or lose and would proudly wear her Padres gear. She also enjoyed attending the various games and recitals of her grand children.

She devoted the rest of her life to her family. Her favorite role was mom, nana and great-nana. She was the hub of the family and there wasn’t anything she wouldn’t do for her babies. She will be dearly missed, she was our light, our love, our queen. We love you mama and will carry on your devotion and love to our family. Thank you for loving us, thank you for showing us what unconditional love is. No one will ever love us like you. Our precious, beautiful mama, we love you, until we meet again.
