With Heavy Heart

It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you today that my dear friend, Rose Marie has passed away.

She sold Victorian Style crafts under the name of Victorian Rose and her husband, Joe, who was always at her side, called to tell me that our Victorian Rose was no longer with us.

She was truly one of the most elegant women I knew and fought a long hard battle against breast cancer that had spread to her bones and other places for the past 27 years.

I will miss her greatly......

I featured her beautiful home decorated for Christmas a while ago.

If you missed it or care to see it again, please click HERE

I would appreciate it if you would be so kind to include her wonderful family in her prayers....

Hugs,
Debbie

    I am so sorry to hear this very sad news Debbie. This is going to be so hard on everyone who loved her, especially with Christmas just around the corner. I will of course keep Rose Marie's friends and family in my thoughts and prayers.

    Take care.

    Blessings,
    Natasha.

    I am so sorry, too. How sad to lose such a sweet friend. She reminds me of my Great Aunt Marie, who always had nice things and a beautiful house.

    My heart goes out to you today.
    Take care.

    So sorry about the loss of your dear friend. It is especially hard when it happens near the holidays. Everyone else is so happy, and they don't realize what you are going through. I will say a prayer for you, and especially for her husband and family, that you all can bear this terrible loss.
    With sympathy,
    Gloria
