Dear Mr. and Mrs. Dueling and Don, I just stumbled across the news of Rose Ann's passing. I considered her my best friend in Mannheim, Germany, and have so many wonderful memories of playing catch, going to the swimming pool, bowling, etc. I had not kept in contact with her through the years, but this news brought tears to my eyes.  Please accept my sincere condolences.  Mary Belcher, Mannheim American High School

We Will Miss You Rose Ann , Our Prayers Go Out To The Family.She Was a Beautiful Lady .

Rose Ann and I went through 6 weeks of radiation at the same time last year, meeting every morning at 7am. She told me of her prognosis but felt that since she was young and healthy, she should be one of the 10% who would survive. We kept in touch and she always had a positive attitude. What a great, fun, honest, lovely person! She spoke so highly of her husband as well. We will miss you Rose Ann. RIP.

To an o'l friend, Rose Ann you will be missed. We know you are at peace and with our Savior. My prayers will continue for your family. Chuck Grayson, Mannheim American H.S.

This note is just a thank you to Ron and family for sharing the beautiful photos of Rose Ann with those of us who loved and her knew her too.  Her beautiful spirit will be with all of us forever.  She may no longer be with us in the physical sense, but her memory will be with us forever.  Thank you again so very much for sharing a side of Rose Ann that many of us never saw but knew lived inside her.

Rose Ann was a unique woman and a wonderful friend. We will miss her winning smile and her infectious laughter. We miss her but we know her in heaven. Our thoughts and prayers are with her husband Ron, her parents Hilde and Jack and her brother Don.

Rose Ann was my savior when I started working in workers' comp 20 years ago.  I was brand new and all I ever had to do is call Rose Ann and she helped with any questions or jams I ever got in to.  It is only befitting now since she was the legal communities savior that she be joined with our Savior for rest and peace.  My sincerest sympathy for her friends and family.  She was definitely one in a million and will be greatly missed.

What a testament this guest book is to Rose Ann!  She touched so many with her warmth, humor and generosity.  I, too, learned much of what I know about workers' compensation from Rose Ann when I began my career as a legal secretary.  We all will miss her terribly but can fortunately find comfort in knowing that we will see her again.  My thoughts and prayers are with her husband, family and friends.

Ron & Family, I, like so many others, first met Rose Ann about 16 years ago through phone calls at the Judge's office.  Finally, after about 10 years of chatting, we met at least once a year for girls night out!  She was a very dear friend and always kept me laughing.  She will be dearly missed.  Let's all have a crown and diet coke in celebration of her life!  Miss you Rosanna Dana!

Rose Ann - you are greatly missed! thanks for the wonderful memories - Love you my friend and I can't wait to see you again in heaven!! - Marlen

I met Rose Ann 14 years ago when I was new to worker's compensation and she was always willing to help me with any questions and go the extra mile that way.  I am glad she is out of pain after so much suffering and looking down on us safely in God's hands.  My sincere condolances to Rose Ann's family.  She will be truly missed by all those whose lives she touched.

Rose Ann will be terribly missed throughout the legal community.  If anyone needed help, you could always count on her to go the extra mile.  I too have known her since the 80's, and she was always the "go to" person.  She probably helped train many of us legal assistants in the workers' comp field.  My thoughts and prayers to the family!

I, too, met Rose Ann through work a few years back.  Without a doubt, she is one of the kindest and bravest souls I've ever known.  When my daughter moved to ORL to go to school, Rose Ann was right there offering to be her "out of town mom"; when my own mother was in her last days, Rose Ann was in touch with me every day offering compassion, solace and understanding, all while dealing with her own illness.  I will miss you, Dear Friend.  You made a difference in my life.  My deepest sympathy to Ron, her parents, and her JCC family in Orlando.

I have known Rose Ann for many years while at the Judge's office.  The legal community has lost a legend.
She was always there to help you and  offer a helping hand. She may have gone to be with the Angels, but she will never be forgotten here. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time and may God hold you in the palm of his hand and guide you through this time of sadness.

I had the pleasure of knowing Rose Ann for many years while she worked for the Judge's office.  She was always kind and helpful.  May she be happy in her place of glory although she will be sadly missed by friends and family.  She will no longer suffer the pain she endured and I hope she finds a friendly face there, my late husband who also passed away from this terrible disease. My thoughts and prayers to her family.

I have known and worked with Rose Ann for over twenty years.  No matter how stressful the situation could be, Rose Ann was always able to help and make light of the situation. It is like a part of our workers comp has passed.  We will miss her dearly but she will never be forgotten.

The Lewis Family sends their Prayers and Deepest Sorrow to the Green Family for their loss.  God has taken her home where she will no longer suffer the pain and the Day of Rejoice will be when you can reunite again!

Rose Ann was truly one of a kind and I am happy to have had her for my friend for over 25 years.  Her "tell it like it is" attitude; her warmth; her smile; her wealth of knowledge; her sense of fashion; her beautiful face; her great stories; her shining personality; and her willingness to always help you will be sorely missed.  It will be like a day without sunshine.  She had a good, true, kind heart and was just a wonderful human being.  God bless you Mr. and Mrs. Dueling and Don, her love of her life, Ron and doggie.  May time heal your sorrow. Our loss is Heaven's gain. I will miss you dear friend.

I, too, "met" Rose Ann because of work. She was always there to teach, instruct, and put you in your place if need be!  She will be missed.  Your family is my constant prayers for strength and acceptance during these hard times.  She truly is in a better place with Gates of Gold.  Stay strong in God's promise that you will one day see her again, free from pain & suffering and brand new!

I have only worked as a legal assistant for 2 years, but Rose Ann was the first person at the judges office I spoke to. I was so nervous and she said I could call her anytime if I needed help. Though I did not get the pleasure of meeting Rose Anne, I knew that I could call her if I needed her. You will be missed, and my prayers go out to your family.

I have known Roseanne since the early 1980's and truly enjoyed chatting with her at the Judge's office.  I was very sad to hear of her passing.  My heart goes out to her family.  She will be missed by the entire legal community.  She was an icon that will always be remembered.  She is now soaring with the angels in heaven.  My deepest sympathy goes out to her family during this diffcult time.

Rose Ann was truly a "unique" "one of a kind" person, someone who you meet or talk with once and never forget.  Always kind, fun and helpful.  She will be missed greatly.

Everyone ever involved in WC in Central Florida will miss you.  You left us much too soon, and with everyone owing you for countless favors, for going the extra mile, and for helping us sort out any problem that arose.  There was one certain smile on the 6th floor for so many years, and I think everyone will remember that longer than we remember the cases we were there to litigiate.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.

Rose Ann will be truly missed.  I spoke with her at least once a week for the past 18 years through our respective jobs.  She was a joy to talk to and approached everything with grace and humor.  To Rose Ann's family, my thoughts and prayers are with you for the treasure you have lost.  Please know that she touched so many lives.

When I began work as a legal secretary a few years ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Miss RoseAnn Tayes! With her throaty voice, and that RoseAnn  smile, she said, "If you ever get tired of working for him...come see me and I will find you a job." I loved that about RoseAnn! Always watching out for those that she cared about. And, she was someone I never forgot, because she was like that. Once you knew her, you would never forget her. I've thought about her frequently over the years when I had to break away from the industry for a short time. I was devastated when I learned she was sick. And now, I'm sad that I won't get to see her again. 

My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Mr. and Mrs. Dueling,

I offer you the deepest condolences of Julio and Jantje and myself. Rose Ann was a beautiful person with a unique heart. I still remember her warm smile and spirit. She is now at peace and without pain at the lords side. We offer our prayers to you in this time of deep loss. God bless you.

Ron and family. Sorry for your loss. I know it was a hard road traveled.My prayers and thoughts are with you.

I first met Roseann back in Mannheim Germany. We attended school together and were on the same softball team. All through the thirty something years we always managed to call each other and talk. I last spoke to my dear friend in December. I could not believe that she was going through what she was going through. She sounded so upbeat. What a positive person. I was so very lucky to have had her in my life. You will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathy to Ron her husband, Don her brother and to Mr.and Mrs. Dueling. love you always. Your friend Nancy

My dear, sweet friend, Rose Ann.  Just the sound of your voice put a smile on my face.  I will miss being able to pick up the phone and chat with you.  To Rose Ann's Mom and Dad - you did a great job raising this lady... Rose Ann was TRULY the BEST!  And to her Husband - I am so sorry for the loss of your best friend.  You are in my prayers.

I have known Rose Ann for the past 12 years, through work.  She always made my job (legal sec'y)so much easier and with much humor.  I will miss her laughter and her ability to always make my day when I spoke with her.  Knowing you are not in pain any more and knowing the newest angel will be looking down on us and watching over us is comforting.  Saying prayers for the family during this time.I know there are no words, but please know that Rose Ann was loved by many and will be missed beyond measure.

"Well done...good and faithful servant."  Matthew 25:23  

I will miss you, my friend...RIP.

I have known Rose Ann for 20 years.  I too was a struggling legal asst when I first came in contact with her.  I will miss her phone calls when we would just chat away.  Her courage during this illness was amazing but I'm glad she is out of pain.  Prayers to her family during this difficult time.

I met Rose Ann in the late 70s, yes, through work. We had our shares of lunches and happy hours. We remained friends through our marriages and even through my move to SC four years ago.  I'll miss our marathon phone calls.  RIP my friend.  My heart goes out to Jack & Hilde, her brother Don, and to the love of her life, Ron.

Rose Ann has been a very dear friend for so many years and will be missed by all who knew her in life.  She fought everyday and in the end, went home to be with our Lord and rest in peace.  Thank you to her family, and especially Ron, who she so deeply loved and admired, for helping her through such a horrible ordeal... my prayers and thoughts are with you all.  Tamara Middleton, Sanford, FL

I first met Rose Ann when I struggled as a legal secretary and didn't know what i was doing.  She helped me without hesitation.  My fondest memory is way back when my son was born (23 yrs ago) and she couldn't wait for me to bring him in so she could cuddle a newborn.  I will miss her laughter and her great sense of humor.  Even though I moved away 7 yrs ago, we kept in touch.  She did live life to the fullest as it was said by another and I'm glad she experienced so much in her short life.  Thanks for being part of my life Rose Ann and I'll always know you're smiling down on all of us from heaven.

Having known Rose Ann for over 20 years, I consider her a very dear friend.  We shared many laughs and tears over the years together and I will always treasure all the laughs that we shared and remember her infectious laughter.  Rose Ann always had such a positive attitude, even when facing the toughest battle of her life.  There is no doubt that God welcomed another angel home Sunday and I look forward to the day when I will see her once again.  My thoughts and prayers are with her family whom she loved so very dearly.

Rose Ann did try to live life to the fullest, we can all agree on that!  All those great cruises, etc.   She will be sorely missed, but be glad that she is out of pain now, and in God's loving arms!  xxoo D.O.A.H.

Rose Ann always had a positive attitude.  It was a delight just to be in her company.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family at this time.
