I first met sweet Rosie Donnelly on a weekend in August in the late 1950's. I went to East Durham with my cousins, Tom and Michael Clifford. It was my first venture into the Irish Alps as it was known due to the great number of Irish resorts in that town.
Rose was staying at Hartigans with her sister Marge and friends. My cousins and I stayed at a nearby hotel. Hartigans held a dance on Saturday night and I spent the whole evening with Rose after dancing the first dance with her. We walked around the grounds afterward and got to know each other
very well. I'm not sure if it was love at first sight but I sure did like her a lot.
The next day after breakfast we went swimming in Hartigan's pool and I learned that Rose had a fear of water. She held on tight to me so she wouldn't slip.That evening as we kissed good bye, I asked her for her phone number. Neither of us had a pen so she told me she was in the book. I knew by now she lived in Woodside, Queens and thought it would be an easy matter. The next evening after calling a dozen Donnellys, I finally found her. We started dating and finally got married in Queens on February 28 1963. Brother Bill and Sis-in-law Plyllis were our witnesses. It was the beginning of a wonderful 50 years of marriage.

I must say that I don't want to remember my grandma as being trapped with that disease because that just wasn't her. I want to remember her saying "Ooh! Erin!" as I walked into her kitchen on Sundays, like she was so surprised and excited to see me even though going there every Sunday had become routine, and her dropping what she was doing to give me a big old hug. I want to remember the lady that came to all of my concerts and plays and sports games even when my own siblings would not. I want to remember that sweet Irish accent that sung me to sleep as a kid, congratulated me after every accomplishment, and welcomed me into her home during every visit. I want to remember my grandma for what she was: a great cook, a caregiver, a wonderful wife, an affectionate mother, but most importantly one of the best grandmothers a girl could ask for. So thank you, God, for granting us all the privilege of knowing this beautiful woman. This is the way I want to remember my grandmother and I hope you all can join me in remembering her in the way I know I always will.

To my Aunt Rose, you went away when I was seven and oh how I missed you. Although you had set off for your new life, you never forgot us. You always sent us lots of clothes and you sent me roller skates and I loved them. My mummy Bridget, your sister, missed you lots because you were her best friend. I used to love to read the letters you sent, you always had a lovely way of writing.
In America you meet Mike and had your family, you were so full of love for your children and they loved you lots. I am so glad that I was able to visit you in 2010. I have so many happy memories of you from when I was a little girl. You left a lasting impression on me as my aunt Rose. I loved you so and I always remember leaving you at Albany airport and your last words to me were, I love you Margaret.
So now you have gone to meet with Granny, your mother, your daddy, brother Pat and sisters, Mary, Madge and Bridget. May you all rest in peace. Love Margaret, your niece and family Emily, Nick, Rosie and Shay and James, Hannah, Reilly and Lillie.

As a little girl I was very, very shy. Kinda painfully so. When Mom (Rose) decided to love me, I knew it, I felt it and always did from that day forward. She made me feel important to her. Always asking me about what I was doing how my friends were and remembered their names. Not earth shattering stuff, but effected my life a great deal. She also taught me how to knit which I still enjoy. Most of all she gave me awesome siblings and from them, nieces and nephews that I cherish. You will always be in my heart. Rose Donnelly Quinn you are one of those rare gems that will always shine on in the hearts of all that had the privilege of knowing you.

Momma - I am not sad that you are gone...you are here in my heart and in my blood and you will continue to live on. I am sad for the suffering you had to endure and I am sad for the times that I was not able to live up to your expectations, but I am so grateful for the life that you lived and the love that you shared with me, my husband and children, my father, my brothers and the rest of the family and, really, anyone who was blessed enough to have crossed your path. I know your soul is in a better place and I know we still have your spirit with us and always will. You did good Rosie and your beautiful soul will be blessed. XOXO Karen

My mother had 5 siblings and only one of them lived in the United States, my Aunt Rose. I am thankful that Aunt Rose and her family lived close enough to my family to be able to visit with them in the summer. I have so many cherished memories of my Aunt and am blessed to have had her as a part of my life. I remember visiting my Aunt Rose, Uncle Mike, Michael, Stephen, Karen and Brian in Long Island, visiting them in Delmar and in her final days, visiting Aunt Rose at the nursing home in Cohoes. She always had such a wonderful smile and she smiled at my sister and me the last time we visited her at the nursing home. Although she was unable to communicate with words, her smile let us know that she still knew who we were and that she was happy to see us. My favorite memory of Aunt Rose is when she and my mother would get together.. When ever my mom and Aunt Rose would get together they would spend hours talking and reminiscing about their childhood in Ireland and stories of when they first came to the United States. After my mom passed away, any time I would go visit my Aunt Rose she would still sit and talk with me about all of the memories she had of her and my mom. I truly loved hearing these stories and will miss them very much. I am sure my Aunt Rose and my mom are chatting away in Heaven!

For many years my sister Maureen and I would spend the weekend with Dad and Rose and the kids on Long Island. After Sunday Mass we would stop at the bakery for rolls and apple turnovers. Rose would cook us all eggs and sausage and those were the best breakfasts ever. I would always make sausage and egg on a roll. Then after the apple turnover with a glass of cold milk. Great memories of wonderful family times.

Words of comfort from my dear sister-in-law, Cathy... A WORD OF CONSOLATION....If a tiny baby could think, it would be afraid of birth, To leave the only world it has known would seem a kind of death. But immediately after birth the child finds itself in loving arms, showered with affection and care for at every moment. Surely the baby would say "I was foolish to doubt God's Plan for me, This is a beautiful life." For the Christian, passing through death is really a birth into a new and better world. Those who are left behind should not grieve as if there were no hope. Life is changed, not taken away. Our dear ones live on, in a world beautiful beyond anything we can imagine, With Jesus and Mary they await the day when they will welcome us with joy. "Do not grieve too much" they say to us. "We are living and are still with you."

I wrote these words back on St. Patricks Day of this year after a tough night sitting with Mom...seems fitting to post them here.
Ever the optimist, I try to look for the silver lining in every situation but this one has been really, really hard...
This has been a terribly unfair and cruel road that my mother has had to travel and its just not right.
Nevertheless, as I reflect on this past year, I still can find some good. In light of what we have witnessed, that in itself is an amazing gift that I am so grateful for.
This path we've been on together, as heart wrenching as it has been at times, has given me some truly special moments that have reinforced for me the true gift of family.
I was blessed to watch my brother Steven's unselfish dedication to my mother as he woke up early each morning no matter how exhausted he was, to get her out of bed just because she wanted him there;
I was blessed to watch her chuckle at Brian's jokes meant to keep the situation at hand as lighthearted as possible, and thankful to him for making us all laugh;
I was blessed to have my brother Michael take the reins and steer us down the right path when we weren't able to think clearly;
I was blessed to have my sister Maureen and my brother Kevin treat my mother like their own;
I was blessed in knowing that we all had such supportive spouses to keep us strong and cover our absence;
I was blessed to have my nieces Elizabeth, Kerin, and Lauren visit when they could and send their love when they could not;
I was blessed to see my son's patience with her as she asked again and again if he had gotten his license yet and he answered the same each time;
I was blessed to see my daughter Erin's enthusiasm as she formed a team with friends and field hockey teammates to walk for a cure, and her understanding that her mom couldn't always be there when she needed her because grandma needed her more;
I was blessed to see the gift of true compassion my niece Ally has. Like her Dad, she took such good care of mom - she needs to become a nurse, like her mom;
I was blessed that my youngest, Collin, was always willing to accompany me for a visit with Mom, understanding the value and the fleeting gift of her presence;
I was blessed to see my godson Gavin always willing to keep Grandma company and bring her ice cream as a special treat;
I was blessed to hear my just turned 9 year old nephew Will say to mom on her anniversary, "Grandma, did anyone ever tell you how pretty you are?;
I was blessed to see how thoughtful my then 8 year old nephew Danny was when we traveled down for his communion and the effects of the illness on mom's mobility were just beginning to take shape. He was so eager to help Grandma and make sure she got around ok;
I was blessed to see that the youngest ones - Emily, Brady and Christopher - didn't shy away from their grandma as she got sick but rather gave her more unconditional love;
I was blessed to have my cousin Regina and her husband Joe come to visit from CT each month to reminisce with mom about old times and the fun we had, reminding her of the special bond she had with her sister Madge;
I was blessed to have my extended family of Quinn cousins make the trip on more than one occasion to be with their beloved Aunt Rose and her exclamation after they all kissed her goodbye that "everybody loves me!";
And, I was truly blessed to see how much my mothers face lit up when my father came into the room and how devoted he was to her. Truly amazing. Watching them I was able to gain a deeper understanding of love, commitment and family. In sickness and in health, for better or for worse...
...we're all in this together and we'll always be here for one another. As horrible as this end has been for mom, I thank god for the gift of family...for her and for us all.
