The obituary notice of Rosemary Lenette GRESTY

Fondly remembered by the Worth family whose sons attended St Joseph's High School.

I worked with Rosemary at St Josephs for about 15 years and greatly admired, respected and loved her. She taught History for several years before switching to English, Literature and Drama. What a talented individual and what fun we had together. I can't believe this sad news. My heart goes out to her husband and Miranda. Rest assured, however, Rosemary will not be forgotten. She was a star and I'm so proud to have been her colleague and friend.

Rosemary. You made a big impact on my life. Watching you on stage and acting with you on stage was a pleasure I will never forget. You will be missed. Rest in peace my lovely xxxxxx

Rosemary, you were a reassuring presence on every stage, well-known and admired by all in your theatre and teaching community.

For me, all of your 'stage' relationships were transformed by one, single ingredient: your love of the craft —the most essential ingredient for success. You not only gave every bit of yourself to the audience, but to your fellow cast members.

Being in any show with you, meant you were sure of a couple of things, fun in rehearsals, a vibrant frock or two and a sense of security.

Rosemary, I'll always recall fondly, your ribbons in Irene Molloy's Hat Shop. You always had "built in elegance, and with elegance", you carried it off!

My prayers are with you and your family.

So sorry to hear about Rosemary. We went to school together and I last saw her at a reunion in November 2023 when she was such fun and entertained us all (as she always did at school). My thoughts go to Rosemary’s family. Sorry I can’t get to the funeral but will make a donation to Cancer Research in Rosemary’s memory. 💕
