While I didn't know Ros too well, only having met her a few times, I know her son Ben. Ben is an intelligent and caring man. I think a lot of that comes from Ros. My sincerest condolences to Ben and family.

Ros was an inspiration.  Her generosity and passion to help others was a gift that lives on.  I will remember her from early days on the tennis court to more recently a beautiful member of our meditation sangha.  Ros was also a loving and supportive friend.

Ros was a wonderful person. My husband and I were lucky enough to know Ros when Tony was alive. We loved their passion for justice issues. When Ros moved, I visited her at Lasell and she seemed very happy there. I know she was a blessing for so many people and causes.

Ros was my aunt, my mentor, my confidant, my friend. She embodied “live simply so that others may simply live.” She had diverse interests and talents. And her commitment to social justice inspires me. Love forever. Doug

Ros was a dear and caring person.  Her husband Tony was my Harvard classmate and I knew him well.  Tony and Ros could be counted on to support many progressive causes.  The world has lost a devoted couple.

Ros and I often connected on legislation she was passionate about, as her state representative, criminal justice reform, climate, death with dignity, rose to the top. She never stopped advocating up to the end. It was my great honor to represent Ros and consider her
my friend
