ROSES FOR ROSEN: DIAMOND EDITION

Last month, we celebrated our “diamond in the rough” as Jo Rosen turned 75. Our fearless, smart, young-at-heart President and Founder still works “eight days a week” to ensure no one is isolated because of Parkinson’s. Below are just some of the comments you submitted to wish Jo a happy birthday. 

Congratulations, Jo, on your success to have paved the way for the founding of PRO and  its accomplishments…to be continued.

Happy birthday to a class act. Congratulations!

I have had the privilege of hearing Jo speak a couple of times.  Her journey with Parkinson's was a long one with little or no support.  Instead of giving up, she delved into what she could do to help others.  Her commitment and passion is nothing short of a miracle.  We all are blessed to have her in our lives as a guiding light to what one can accomplish.  Thank you Jo.
