My deepest condolences to Mrs. Coxen’s family. I am so sad to hear of her passing. She was my 4th grade teacher, and she was the best. I am so happy that I was able to visit her last year, and stay in contact with her. Such a wonderful, beautiful person. I will always think of her fondly with love. Marie Restifo
Cindy and family: I am so sorry for your loss. I am truly blessed I got to know and spend time with such a wonderful, sweet woman. I so loved sitting visiting w/your mom when I sold Avon. May God help you at this terribly painful time of our lives. I love you Cindy.

I am so terribly sorry to hear of Rosalie’s passing. My first thought was her talking to my mom in heaven. They were such very close friends so they have lots of catching up to do. My condolences to all of you. She was a special lady.
I should have put my maiden name. Moncrief
