My deepest condolences to the family. I can remember when I met Rose at W H Burton elementary. She always had a smile that would bring joy to the room. You will be missed forever but never forgotten RIP from Tanjia King and King family
My condolences to the family, especially, to you Rudine, my cousin, I can’t begin to imagine the loss, pain, or grief, of losing a child,. The only one I know who can comfort us in all things is Our Father God. When the crowd is gone and you’re all alone he’ll be there for you. To the siblings of Rose be strong cousins. We are praying for y’all during this difficult transition. Remember, this too will pass. Celebrate the days, and, years you had before she departed from this life. Love y’all.

Roses for Rose
Like the beautiful flower that shares her name, Rose touched the lives of many in different ways. Roses bloom in a spectrum of colors, each carrying its own special meaning. Red symbolizes love, yellow represents friendship, and white reflects innocence and purity—qualities that live on in the memories of those who knew and loved her.
Even the rose’s thorns remind us of its strength and resilience, standing as a symbol of endurance through life’s challenges. May the love she shared, the friendships she cherished, and the legacy she leaves behind continue to bloom in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her.
May she rest in peace, and may her family and friends find comfort in the treasured memories she leaves behind.
My heart is heavy as I say goodbye to a dear friend. I take comfort in knowing that you are at peace and in God’s loving care. Your memory will live on in all who knew and loved you.
Of all of life’s blessings, great and small, the people that we love are the most cherished of all. Family Love for Rose lives on in your hearts as you journey through grief. Because you loved her, there will be tears. As Jesus holds your hands, there will be joy in the memories you shared that no one can take away. With deepest sympathy and love.
Please accept my sincerest condolences and know that I am here for you. May care and love of those around you provide comfort and peace to get you through the days ahead. Words may not suffice to express the heartfelt sorrow that I feel for the passing of your loved one. May you be comforted by the outpouring of love surrounding you 🙏♥️🌺
Rose, give my mom the biggest and hug for me in Heaven. May your beautiful soul rest in peace 💐💞

I’m so sorry. I know there are no words big enough to hold what you all are feeling right now.
Losing someone who lived that close to your heart is a kind of shock that hits your whole body. Rose was loved by many.The memories shared together, the inside jokes, the seasons of life you walked through together, all of it is still a blessing. Her impact doesn’t disappear just because she’s no longer on earth. Always keep her precious memories alive.
Sending you all love kisses and hugs🙏🙏🙏 Shambreka Johnson and Family
