I only just heard all of this, and am deeply saddened to hear of the loss. The time I spent at the Rep was some of my best time, and the time with you and Rose would be considered to be "the best of the best." I remember working on ACC and Rose had to sit on my knee during the Fezziwig scene, and she was always so concerned for me, making jokes - transition to working with both of you on MUD... such a completely different experience, and yet one that I treasure for the time I got to spend with you and Rose.
My heart is breaking just a bit tonight, but know that she lives on obviously in the form of the love she shared and the incredible number of people she touched.
I am so, so sorry to hear the news. I've never known anyone remotely like Rose, and I honestly have no words to express my gratitude for the times shared at the Rep.
Jim, I have been following the updates on this blog. It gave me some idea how to pray for you and Rose. My deepest condolences and God richly bless you, always. Jay Westhauser
