Dear LymeInfo Friends,
I'm sure you've all missed our regular moderator these past few weeks. Rose had been taking a few weeks off to visit her daughter Amy in Hershey, Pennsylvania. She was spending time with Amy and helping her get settled in a new apartment. Rose was planning to be back at her home in Texas and posting to LymeInfo again before the end of the month.
Unfortunately, I have VERY sad news to report. Rose's husband James has informed me that Rose passed away yesterday, April 18. When Rose's daughter couldn't reach her at her hotel, she called the hotel manager who found her. This is very unexpected and upsetting.
** From James:
"Until I am able to talk with the M.E. in Hershey, I don't have any other info to pass on. Rose was really enjoying her time in Hershey up until last Thursday, when breakthrough pain hit. Sleeping seemed to be the only respite. Both Amy and I kept trying to get her to see a doctor up there, but she wanted to wait until she got back here to DFW to be with our own AngelDoc..
We will be bringing Rose back here, but don't know when, nor when services or internment will happen.
Please bear with me. I know she loved her time with the LymeInfo community list."
** Rose had been suffering from late-stage chronic Lyme disease for many years. She joined on as moderator of LymeInfo in 2002, but had been previously known around the Lyme community for her postings on various Lyme email groups. All who knew her knew she was very warm, kind and dedicated. In joining LymeInfo, she was eager to make sure that the information needs of all Lyme patients were met. We all learned so much as a result of her energy and commitment. Rose was a good friend and will be missed dearly.
Rose's personal website:

More information will be passed along once it is available.
Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.
With lotsa love,
Cheryl
