Auntie Rosemary was always incredibly kind. It was wonderful to sit down with her when you hadn't seen her in a while and just talk about how your lives had been going. She was definitely the matriarch of the Jenkins clan since she had the swiss-army knife ability to be extremely compassionate, highly stubborn and incredibly humourous. There was no stopping her when she wanted to accomplish a goal in her life. She was a fearless woman well ahead of her time, who passed on all these traits on to her children and grandchildren. She will live on in them for many many years to come.

Our condolences to all the family. We both had so much respect for Aunty Rosemary and always very appreciative of her kind and loving heart! When we got married, she let David's family stay at her home while they were in Canada, which they all were so thankful for. It made their stay in Canada much more homely and welcoming. This just showed the kind heart that she had. She will be sadly missed, but always remembered. Love Kathy Ann, David and family.
