~Rainbo Electronic Reviews
Rose Marie found me in Cleveland, brought me to Hollywood, and introduced me to show business. I couldn't have had a nicer, kinder, funnier lady as a tour guide. She will always occupy a special place in my thoughts. I'll be at the bookstore waiting for the fun Hold the Roses will provide.
