Kwiatkowski and Florence(Kropaczewski) She had one sister Virginia(Jean)

Rosemary was a fan of anything Betty Boop. She enjoyed crocheting afghans and
in recent years was an avid reader of large print novels. Her best attribute
was her humor and being the "life of the party". She kept journals for almost
20 years and if you knew Rosemary you have probably been included in those
pages someplace.

her growing number of Great-Grandchildren.

playdoh characters with them.
