Rosa was a kind, loving, caring, and generous woman who always thought of others needs first before her own. Anyone who knew her would tell you that her home was open to all her family and many friends. She never hesitated to make them feel welcomed and loved. Rosa enjoyed many activities in her spare time, such as, coloring in her adult coloring books, playing games on her tablet, shopping, and reading the bible. However, her favorite pasttime was to spend time playing with her grandchildren and she was so proud of her children for giving her the joy of them all. Rosa also embraced the many blessings that came with being around to see her great grandchildren grow as well. She will be missed greatly by her loving family and many friends.
