We would like to express our sympathy for your loss. Every time I saw Rosemary at Dawn and Tom's, she always had a smile on her face and she was so easy to talk with. She was a special lady who was loved by so very many.

We are so sorry for your loss. I met Rosemary on several occasions through Dawn(my sister) and Tom Paxton and Jennifer and Elizabeth. Rosemary was humorous kind and above all very loving. Her legacy of love lives on.

Rosemary was my mentor in the field of special education at Sherrard Unit 200. She taught me so much and was a constant source of fun and humor for me. The world is a better place because of her presence in it. She will be missed.

Sending my sympathy to Rosemary's family. I worked with Rosemary in the Sherrard School District. She was a very professional and caring lady. She taught me a lot about special education as I was a new teacher. I also enjoyed listening to her stories about her adventures and her family. She touched many lives.

Our thoughts and prayers will be with the entire family. Aunt Rosie played a big part in my life while growing up. I will always remember (and often tell stories about) my visits to Kewanee and the Paxton home. We want to communicate our heart felt feelings and condolences to the family. She will be missed but never forgotten.

Sincere condolences to Rosemary's family and friends. I had the pleasure of meeting Rosemary through the RCIA group at the church when I was only in middle school. She was a true inspiration to those around her, always in good spirits, and a kind hearted woman. I feel blessed to have known her, spending many years through high school with her in the church. She will be dearly missed by all.

I will always remember Aunt Rosie as being very patient, wise and encouraging. She sent me a book of prayers after my mother died that helped me to grieve and build a closer relationship with Jesus Christ our savior. I know she is with God now and with Grandma and Grandpa! She has always loved the Lord! I'm sure He is saying to her "Well done my good and faithful servant". Thank you Aunt Rosie for sharing the good news with me. We will all be together again in our Father's house.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have been a friend of Peggy for many years. I remember her mom as a sweet woman, who had a beautiful warm smile, who loved her family more than anything. May your memories of this beautiful woman sustain you in the days to come.

To the Paxton Family,
I remember Mrs. Paxton always making the best sandwiches for the meal after swim team meets. She was so kind and supportive of all the swimmers. My heart goes out to you all. She was a very special woman. I feel blessed to have known her.

Dear Rosemary's family,
How blessed you must feel to have had this special lady to call family! What a warm, loving and giving soul she was. She touched so many people's lives including my own and especially those of my mom and dad - Sharon & Larry Thurwanger. They so loved her and so wish they could've been by her side these last few days. May her love and memories wrap you in comfort. Prayers and hugs
