Posted on: Friday, December 28, 2018A Rosemary was much loved by our family here in the UK. I remember her visits to us on Tyneside where we enjoyed her company greatly. She was such fun and caring of us all. She made Arthur and I very welcome when we visited Canada some years ago, Lionel as well, of course! She kept in touch frequently and it was lovely to hear her news of the family, Lionel and herself. She was so loved and will be greatly missed. I will miss her and her contact through the emails and photographs which made me feel part of the family. My thoughts and prayers are with her, Lionel and the family. With much love from Christine x

Posted on: Friday, December 28, 2018We will remember ‘Auntie’ Rosemary as a wonderful, warm hearted lady who was so proud of her lovely family. She was always so good at keeping in touch with the wider family. She will be sadly missed by all of us at the Seager branch of the family tree.
Sending much love to all of you in Canada,
Janet, Rod, Arthur & Raymond (daughter of Helen Seager, Rosemary’s cousin)

Posted on: Sunday, December 30, 2018Condolences to Lionel and all the family. We met Rosemary through a mutual friend, Corrine, and have kept in touch over the years via email. She was a wonderfully descriptive writer and we will miss her communications. She was a lovely, generous person, with a very deep love of her extensive family.
We are so very sorry.
