    We just learned of Rosalind's passing. She was our adoption worker with Catholic Charities, as well as our instructor for MAPP training. Rosalind held our hands and guided us as we pursued the adoption of our son six years ago. We are believers that God places people in our path to help us--Rosalind was the angel who led us to a ten-year old little boy and we are forever grateful. Our sympathy to her family--Rosalind was truly a gift from God!

    Rosalind was always known as 'Aunt Ronnie' to us growing up. She was a lovely woman with a kind heart. Talking with her at all the family gatherings was always a pleasure. I will forever remember the times we spent together at the Boston Esplanade Fireworks on the Fourth of July. She always did enjoy the spectacle of the crowd, concert, and fireworks. We were happy to know that Aunt Ronnie would join us for those events and will feel her absence. We will miss Aunt Ronnie as we treasure our times together and are forever thankful to have shared the moments we had. We love you Aunt Ronnie! May God bless and keep you in His loving embrace!

    Ronnie was a very brave, loving, compassionate and gentle woman. She loved her family and and loved going to family functions. Ronnie will be missed very much. She is in our thoughts and prayers.

    My condolences to the family of Rosalind Carito, or as I knew her "Ronnie" or, sometimes "Rosalinda". We were students at Merrimack College together; I considered her a friend during our four years there. Sometimes between classes we would walk together between the buildings and discuss the deep thoughts that college students often ponder. To my memory she was always graceful, also enigmatic, yet intriguing. I think fondly of her and will remember her in my prayers.

    My sincerely sympathy for the loss of Rosalind. I worked with her for many years at Catholic Charities and after in the Massachusetts Adoption World. She was a true professional and so proud of her family. She is in my prayers.
