Sister Rose, was just that, EVERY and ALL definition of a "rose" that The Lord gave to her family, both spiritual and natural, and her friends during her years here on Earth. GOD came and picked HIS Rose, and placed her back into HIS Garden(HEAVEN)! I too, was privilege t0 have shared the 'fragrance" of that Beautiful Rose! I send my sincerest condolences and prayers to the Broussard family, and all.
