Marj, so sad to hear this. Truly he fought a good fight. We think of you guys often and the special holiday meal with the Browns and Coleen, and the snow. We remember his jokes, his smile, and how he loved you. Hugs and prayers across the miles.
Mr. Roseberry loved his family. I never stopped to say hello at a restaurant or store without seeing him smile and hearing an update on Rick.
Condolences to Marjorie and family. Our thoughts and prayers. RIP Richard.

To Marge, Rick, and the entire Roseberry family: I am thinking of you at this time. I have so very many fond memories of dear Rick, with his quiet demeanor; dry sense of humor, and caring, loving personality. I know he will be missed!
