I have thought of Rosemary throughout the years. We were classmates in Hawthorne Jr. H.S. and Yonkers H.S.
She was mature beyond her years which I admired. It was because of her that I went to the prom. I didn´t have a date and neither did a classmate. She got us together to go as friends as she said I would look back on this time and would feel terrible that I missed this special event. Of course she was right.
Reading her obit and what she accomplished in life didn´t surprise me at all. She was a beautiful person and smart beyond her years.
I was sorry to learn of her passing. May she rest in peace.

Dear Dr. Randell--Belated yet most sincere condolences upon your beloved wife, Rosemary's passing. I only recently learned of this terribly sad news.

I had the privilege of meeting Rosemary during my tenure at InSite Wireless Group. InSite bought Hawaiian Telcom's tower assets in 2016, and Rosemary was integral to helping us learn the intricacies of doing business in Hawaii.

You may recall that Rosemary invited me to your lovely home on a couple of occasions, one of the pictures that I uploaded was taken when we all went to the beach near your home to watch the sunset.

I will make a donation to the Hawai'i Land Trust in Rosemary's honor and memory. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. With most sincere condolences and best regards, Roni Jackson

Dear Dr. Randell- I had the distinct honor and pleasure of getting to know Rosemary, and through her, you, during my tenure as General Counsel at InSite Wireless Group. InSite purchased Hawaiian Telcom´s communications towers and Rosemary was indispensable in helping us to learn the intricacies of doing business in Hawaii.

In a personal note, Rosemary was "the best of the best" and became a role model to me not only as a lawyer but as a person who lived authentically, giving if her in incredible intellect, heart, and talents to better the world for so many.

Praying for peace and comfort for you during this difficult time.

Warmly, Roni Jackson

We were neighbors with Rosemary and her husband David for many years in Kailua, shared progressive dinners, our Italian heritage and camaraderie that is rare to find these days in a neighborhood. We raised our kids and their golden retrievers together, lived through many false-tsunami warnings, witnessed flocks of tourists trek down the beach lane and enjoyed holiday fireworks together. She was a kind, thoughtful, intelligent woman who served her community selflessly. We will miss you Rosemary.
Ci mancherai molto.
Love and light, AnnMarie & Sabino Manzulli and family

One of my best students when I was a Professor of Social Work. I was glad to provide scholarship help for her MSW and law degree thru my gerontology grant. She continued providing social services through out her life. She was fun and a wonderful person.
