2006: THE JOURNEY CONTINUES

School

David continued his freshman year in the dorms for the Spring. But, his room-mate was an interesting character. He decided the dorms weren’t for him, so we moved him into an apartment in the Fall for his junior year.

Lauren was in her finished her junior year in the Spring and began her Senior year in high school in the Fall.

I was still on the long-range plan in my doctoral program.

This was the first year that U of L was in the Big East Conference. As we had just gone to Florida and the conference was in its infancy, you and David skipped the conference in March this year. You did go to the NCAA Hall of Champions in Indianapolis over the June 22-23 weekend.

About Susan Rose

I'm Susan Rose, offering support in School Counseling and Grief Coaching. In School Counseling, I am a school counselor turned counselor educator, professor, and author helping educators and parents to build social, emotional, and academic growth in ALL kids! The school counseling blog delivers both advocacy as well as strategies to help you deliver your best school counseling program. In grief support, I’m a mother, grandmother, professor, author, and wife (I’ll always be his). Until October 20, 2020, I lived with my husband, Robert (Bob) Rose, in Louisville, Ky. On that awful day of October 20,2020, my life profoundly changed, when this amazing man went on to Heaven. Married so young, we literally grew up together. We raised a family together and had a wonderful journey. We weren’t ready for it to be over! After Bob moved to Heaven, I embraced my love of writing as an outlet for grief. I know this is God leading me to honor Bob through using my background and experience to fulfill a new life purpose. Hence, this site is my attempt to share what I learned as a Counselor in education with what I am learning through this experience of walking this earth without him. My mission is to help those in grief move forward to see joy beyond this most painful time.
