In 1991, she and her husband in retirement moved to Rio Communities on the golf course east of Belen. She never met a game of scrabble she didn't like, delighted in crossword puzzles and reading novels. Her main love was party bridge and the many friends who came into her life. She related each had a quality she admired and enjoyed..even when they redoubled her bid. It was with great sorrow in 2005 her health forced an end to her participation. Her favorites were Butterfingers, Cheetos, Lay's Classic Potato Chips, Golden Pride fried chicken and an evening toddy. She loved her family, her siblings, Elizabeth Heise, Steve DoBell and wife, Joanne, Keith Niggel, brother-in-law, and her Ambercare Hospice caregivers, Dr. Joseph Aragon, Nurse Linda Barela and Nurse's aide Jeanette Burch. After being a widow for many years, Rosemary's mother, Elizabeth remarried noted Albuquerque artist, John P. Reynolds.. thus gaining her beloved Reynold siblings.
