Rose will forever hold a special place in my heart, and I am thankful for so many wonderful memories. She was truly one of a kind, and loved by everyone that knew her. Prayers for the LaBeau family as you learn to live life without her. God bless you.
I haven’t seen Rose in many many years but have some very fond memories of parties at their home. One of the many times we were there, Bob went through the pictures he had developed of first the moon landing and gave my husband some of his duplicates and it was something my husband Marc, cherished till the day he passed away. Thanks for the memories Rose, RIP
I had the privilege to be a caregiver to Rose. She was such a beautiful person. I always called her My Sunshine and she would always give me the biggest smile. She would always tell you Thank You not matter what the situation was. I will truly miss my Rosie. My deepest condolences goes out to Bob and the family. I’m so sorry for the loss of such a beautiful soul.
Tim, Dororthy and The LaBeau family. We’re so sorry to hear about Rose. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Give Bob a big hug from us!

Rose, what a beautiful name for a beautiful lady. What an honor it was to have met you. Love and prayers and thanks.
Oh, the good times…all of you LaBeaus knew how to throw a party for Rose. It seemed like Rose and Mickey were joined at the hip since kindergarten. It was the ‘Lucy and Ethyl Show’. Bob, God bless you and your entire family.
Remembering a lot of fun times with Rose and Bob. Sympathy to the whole family.
Rose will live in our hearts forever. wish we had able to be at her funeral.
