Sweet Rosemary I so enjoyed our time together. You were my customer first and now my family. I hope you know how loved you were by so many people. I hope you are up there in heaven dancing with Charles and Tina Turner. Always know you were “Simply the best.” Rest in peace sweet Rosemary. I love and miss you always… Love Donna
Miss Rosemary, I knew you only a short time and the last time I saw you was near your 102nd birthday. We had lunch and you were one of the most interesting ladies I’ve ever known. I loved to hear you talk about your life and your adventures. We always said we were going to take a train ride. I still have not. I tried to call you but got no answer and went by your condo and didn’t look like you lived there anymore. So sorry I didn’t know what happened to you. You made a difference in many people’s lives, especially mine. Rest in Peace.
For some reason today, I googled Miss Scott out of the blue, and was so sorry to see that she had recently passed.
I used Rosemary Scott Temps, in ‘NYC in the 1980’s and she told me she lived very close to me. Almost around the corner. She was a lovely woman.
!05 is a pretty good run. May she RIP 🙏🏻
I am late to including a message, but wanted to leave it anyway. Rosemary employed my mother at Rosemary Scott, Inc. for many years. She was an excellent businesswoman with a heart of gold. When my father dies when I was 13, Rosemary included me on a family health plan so that my mother could afford to have me covered. My mother loved Rosemary and appreciated her business acumen, but more than anything, her kindness and compassion. We spent many Christmas Days with Rosemary and Catherine, and we were always treated like family.
She lived a long and glorious life, and did much good in this world. What more could one want from life itself. May her memory be a blessing.
