Gardener
Julie Rosen lived life with her hands in the dirt and her heart in full bloom. A master gardener in her own backyard, Julie didn’t just grow flowers—she grew joy. Every petal in her garden had a story, every bloom carried a bit of her spirit.

She was the kind of grandmother who would hand you a trowel before you could walk and teach you how to properly plant a marigold before you could spell it. Her grandkids knew that her hugs smelled like lavender and sunscreen, and that no scraped knee or bad day couldn't be fixed with a cookie and a peek at the dahlias.

Julie once called her daughter and said, “There’s been an incident in the garden.” Naturally, the family rushed over—only to find Julie standing in her sunhat, shovel in hand, glaring at a squirrel on the fence. “That little thief stole my tulip bulb,” she huffed. “So I chased him off with a broom.”
She later named him Nibbles the Menace and claimed they were at war all summer. Eventually, she started leaving peanuts for him on the far end of the yard as a peace offering. “We have a treaty now,” she said, “but I still don’t turn my back on him.”

Famous Chocolate Chips
Julie’s chocolate chip cookies were legendary—and completely unrepeatable. She never used a recipe, claimed the measurements “lived in her heart,” and insisted the secret ingredient was “a little sass.” No one ever managed to replicate them, though plenty tried. “Mine don’t taste like Grandma’s,” the grandkids would say, and she’d just smile and reply, “That’s because you measure.”
