Rosie passed away on the evening of May 10th 2012 after an illness which she bore with grace.

This site was originally set up to keep Rosie's friends updated in the final months of her illness (please click here for posts from April, and here for posts from May). The comments left by friends and family during those weeks, as well as emails sent, gave her much joy and strength.

Rosie’s funeral service will take place at l’Eglise St Robert, Route du Lac, Coppet on Wednesday 16th May at 3:30pm and afterwards there will be light refreshments in the hall beside the church.

St Robert is on the Route Swiss.  If you are coming from Geneva it is past Coppet on the right hand side of the road at the lake side about 1 km outside the village.  If you are coming from Nyon it is just after the second turning to Founex on the left hand side. You can find further details on this website: http://www.cath-vd.ch/-Paroisse-de-Coppet-.html

As a tribute to the care Rosie showed for others, we would appreciate that, instead of flowers, donations be made to the ‘Save the Children’ fund. In order to facilitate this, we plan to set up a specific tribute fund in Rosie’s name which we will communicate to you shortly.
