MOTHER
ROSE

BECAUSE OF YOU THERE WAS LOVE
Note: There is a photo of Mary on the large monument. Joseph's inscription is on the the base, directly above the name, "PALUMBO".
Not certain Rose was a Palumbo. Her stone is equidistant between Mary Palumbo's stone and another large monument for Leonilda Monaco. It's slightly closer to the Palumbo side so am guessing she was a member of the Palumbo family.
