Helping with John's final expenses

As you may have heard by now, John Anderson recently passed suddenly and unexpectedly. He and Rose have been such a beautiful part of our community through the years and some of us wanted to find a way to help Rose through this very difficult time and to honor John at the same time. During the Rose's Garden days in Garden Valley 2002-2016, they sponsored so many community events and gave countless teens their first local job experience all while always sharing a smile that followed with cheerful conversation... oh, we of course shouldn't skip talking about their delicious food and sweet treats, oh boy how we've all missed those.

We know that budgets are strained these days, but anything would help. Please keep Rose in your thoughts and prayers as she goes through this process of taking care of John's final arrangements and as she finds her new normal in this world. Please share and pass this forward as you feel led.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Edit: there will be a small graveside service will be on August 7th at 10am in the Kelsey Pioneer Cemetery, additionally there will be a memorial service at Green Valley church August 29th at 1:00pm.
