“Just wait awhile and you will see,” was Louis Rose’s favorite saying. Louis was SD’s first Jewish pioneer, an entrepreneur and the founder of Roseville, a settlement along the bay in Point Loma. Henrietta was his only child to survive infancy...living to the age of 84. The unmarried San Diegan was a long-time teacher whose once unmarked grave was recently found at Mt. Hope Cemetery (nearly 50 years after she was buried). Red-haired Henrietta Rose taught at several schools including Roosevelt Jr High. Her final home was in Normal Heights at the corner of Madison and Arizona. A memorial for Henrietta was held this morning at Mt. Hope with representatives from the school system, the Eastern Star and the Jewish community. Local newsman and historian Ken Kramer will feature Henrietta on NBC’s Channel 7/39 tonight and again on Friday.

gun that is made, every warship launched, every
rocket fired,
signifies
in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not
fed,
those
who are cold and are not
clothed. — Dwight D.

Congrats to the happy newlyweds

This bronze sculpture of a B-24 Liberator is the centerpiece of the new memorial garden at the Veterans Museum in Balboa Park. The garden will be dedicated this afternoon at 1pm following a Veterans Day Parade which will start at 10am near the zoo and head south toward downtown to Presidents Way. The plane is a replica of those built in San Diego in the 1940s at Consolidated Aircraft.

of Marijuana Clear When You Need It
Regarding “Taking on the
pot
law” (SD Union editorial, November 6): Marijuana is not any worse
than
booze. Until 1960 marijuana could be legally prescribed by a
doctor or
dentist. I do not use drugs
myself, nor do I smoke. For you to say it has no value is plain
stupid. Wait until you or your loved ones get cancer
and you will
talk out of the other side of your mouth.I am a former policeman and a 66 year-old native San Diegan. We spend billions of dollars fighting drugs, and they still keep coming in. Let's think of smarter ways to spend our money. The people of California have spoken.
