My condolences to the Neary family.  Growing up in St. Adrian's parish in the 50's & 60's, Mrs. Neary was the kindest, wisest, most cheerful parent I knew.  She was devoted to her family and always gracious towards the classmates & friends.  I remember many lifts home from neighborhood events, & there was always a warm greeting when I turned up unexpectedly at the front door.
She once told my mother she regretted not finishing college & becoming a teacher.  But she still managed to be a role model & touch so many lives.  I have often thought of her over the years & will always remember her fondly.

My deepest condolences to the family and close friends...I am a former St.Adrian Bulldog and Mrs Neary was a wonderful woman, so cheerful and wity...I spent a lot of time in the office those years. What an amazing woman.

Rose was a truly wonderful lady. My mother (Rose's cousin Geri Porto) thought the world of Rose and they were great friends throughout their lives. They both had that La Mantia drive, passion for learning and compassion for others. She will be missed.

Beautiful woman. You will be missed Aunt Rose. May your soul rest in eternal peace.

My condolences to the Neary family. She was such a sweet person and she was Mom to all of us who went to St Adrian's. God bless her. RIP.

John, Pat, Kate,

Your mom and grandmother was wonderful person and she left behind great kids, grandkids and great grand kids.  I am sure your memories of her will help ease the pain of losing her.  I am sure she is looking down with all heart and watching over you.

To the Neary family.  Your mother was a wonderful woman.  I was a graduate of St. Adrian's grammar school.  She would always say hello and ask how my family was doing. The smile on her face and her bubbly personality always made me happy to see her.  

May she Rest in Peace.

Dear Nearys all,

Rose always said how blessed she was to have such a wonderful family. You were so precious to her and cherished by her.

I worked with Rose just a few years at St. Adrian, and she was the brightest, sweetest light there. Teacher or child, she loved us and took such wonderful care of us. She mothered us all.

Rose and I have been writing each other at least twice a year since 1981, and she always was that upbeat, gentle, cute, and kind person I met on my first day at St. Adrian. I loved catching up with her and learning what all of you and those grands and great grands were doing. She was so proud of you, and you surely are so proud of her. What a dear woman!  My prayers are with you all. I know I will miss her, so I can only imagine the depth of your loss.

To the Neary Family,

My deepest sympathy on the death of your beloved Rose. I have known her for about 45 years, and she was the best.  She had a way with children when she was the secretary at St. Adrian School.  Everyone loved and respected Mrs. Neary.  May eagles' wings deliver her into the awaiting arms of our dear Lord.

Barbara Spangler and Family

I was just thinking about her last week, wondering how she was.  I had to call St. Adrian last month to get copies of my baptism, communion and confirmation certificates.  Such a wonderful person.  She was always so nice and helpful. May she rest in peace.

Rose was a delightful and charming lady full of joy and energy.  She will be missed by all her TOPS buddies.  Please accept my deepest sympathy.

Love, Pat Threet

I had the pleasure of working with Mrs. Neary in the office in the mornings when I attended St. Adrian's.  I only remember kindness and patience from her and always a bright smile.  I'm certain she will be truly missed by many.

Mrs. Neary was always such a kind soul and an asset to St. Adrian.  She will be greatly missed.

She was always a bright face in the office of St. Adrian. She will forever be a part of my childhood. Condolences to the family.
