Rosemary and Bob Van Arkel were close friends with my parents, Louis and Gladys Eisenhart of Glenlord Rd. near Scottdale, southeast of St. Joe, MI., and they were both named my Godparents at my Baptism in the St. Joseph Catholic Church on Valentine's Day, February 14, 1960, when I was 15 days old. My condolences to the family and close friends for this difficult separation from Rosemary. Prayers from me and my family for your comfort, and positive thoughts in hopes that we will all join our loved ones spiritually in Heaven for eternity. ~ Darwin & LuAnn Eisenhart and sons Jared, Justin & Joshua.

I only knew Rosemary for a short time, but I enjoyed my visits with her at White Oaks. She always greeted me with a huge smile. We would pray the rosary together, and before I left, she'd put one hand on each side of my face, look me in the eyes, and say "You're beautiful." She was one special lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

For almost forty years we shared the same neighborhood on Glenlord Road. We spent a lot of time together and recall many memorable experiences. Together with you we mourn the passing of your wonderful mother and friend. She now enjoys the peace she prayed for her entire life and is together with Dad in heaven. Her legacy is that we, her family and friends, walk the same path of faith and trust in Jesus that leads into His presence.

Dear Family & friends,
My most sincere & heartfelt sympathy in your loss. When I heard the news, all I could think of was that we lost a "Sweetheart!" I knew her as so very kind and helpful. She always had a nice smile and a kind word for anyone she met. I was honored to be a friend to your "loved one."
May she Rest in Peace & May God reward her Goodness.
