ROSEMARY GAINES MAROO MARINE IS WITHOUT A DOUBT, A STAR................. For the truth is, that anybody lucky enough to know this soprano will certainly agree that she the very definition of class. The embodiment of strength and an inspiration to all of mankind. Born december the 13th 1935,( although i still wonder if the year wasn't some type of typo on her birth certificate because there is no way in hell she is almost 83........) This fiery redheaded italian from jersey city nj, has made it her life's mission to make the world a better place. From the start, rosie was a star. From her time on broadway, to her role as a loving mother, devoted wife, registered nurse, and her most recent role as the vocalist for the duo black white and rose, it is obvious that rosemary was blessed with the heart of a lioness, spirit of an angel and voice of a timeless icon whose melodic depths and unparalleled dynamics remind you of the miracles of music and its ability to move us like nothing else in the world. I, like any of you reading this, have for whatever the reason been chosen to have had this angelic soul placed in my path. And words cannot express what her very presence has done for me. She has restored my faith. Strengthened my spirit and brought out the best in me. So now, in her moment of need, and after a lifetime of selflessness, we have all been given an opportunity to show her just how much she is loved and just how many people truly care. So to all of her enduring fans, get to writing her a message already.... Lol... And your prayers will certainly not hurt..... To Rosie......
