On Sunday, 25th May 2025, Rose’s world changed forever. Her beloved husband of over 60 years, Ted, passed away at the age of 95 following a sudden and serious illness. Just two weeks earlier, both Rose and Ted were hospitalized — and heartbreakingly, Ted did not recover.

Rose and Ted shared a beautiful life filled with love, memories, and unwavering commitment. Together, they raised their cherished twins, Garry and Kathy. Kathy lives with profound disabilities and requires full-time care, adding further challenges to the family’s situation.
