Smith

Rose Smith was born on August 11, 1925 in St Elizabeth, Jamaica to Mary Jane Bent and Salomon Smith. She departed this life on Sunday November 24 ^, 2019 in Hackensack NJ.

Rose lived in St Elizabeth where she attended St Elizabeth Primary School.  She moved from St Elizabeth to Kingston in ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­her early 20s and lived there until she migrated to the U.S. in 1994 to live with her children.

Rose had five children Calbert (decease), Franklin, Barbara, Michael and Yvonne, 15 Grandchildren and 11 Great-Grandchildren.

Mama, Grandma, Great-grandma, Aunty, Sister, Cousin, Friend and Caretaker to many; she gets all the titles. She was a God-fearing woman who introduced her family to God and was the great protector of the family. She led with an iron fist but had the biggest, kindest heart and a cook like no other.

Rose Smith may your beautiful soul rest in peace. We will continue to love, celebrate, honor and cherish all the memories we have of you.
