Miss Rosemary Simonin was my nurse for childhood up to premarital examin in
Dr. Speisseger's office. She used to come up behind me and give the penicillin shots before I knew she was there. WOW! she was so good it did not even hurt much at all. God rest her soul and thank God for her life. Bless all her family with renewed relationship with our savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. God keep you all in her perfect will.

Puckharber Family,
We were very sad to hear of Ms. Rosemary's passing. She was a wonderful neighbor to us over the years. We think of you Doris and her every Christmas when we hang the special Snow baby ornament on the Christmas tree you gave Will his first Christmas as a newborn. Heaven has gained another angel along with her other siblings. May you find comfort in their reunion to be together again. We have the family in our prayers.
Fred, Susan, and Will Rodewoldt

I was truly a blessed girl to have Rosie as my godmother. She always remembered me in good times such as birthdays, graduations, marriage, and came to my rescue when Maggie was a colicky baby; she told me to feed her rice cereal in a bottle, I did, and it worked! She was a great comfort to me and my sisters when Mom and Daddy ( Doris and Sherman Yarborough) passed away; and again reached out to us when Christine's son, Brian, lost his life in a car accident in 2002. Her friendship and devotion to my mother, Doris, and all 4 Yarborough girls, was just simply who she was at her core: full of love for family, friends, devotion to God and her Catholic faith. All my love to Miss Rosie. All my thoughts and prayers to her extended family.
