Louis Rose Gravesite

2005—Louis Rose Gravesite--As it was at the Home of Peace Cemetery, Imperial Avenue west of Interstate 805,
 in 2005.  Rose originally was buried in San Diego's first Jewish cemetery in the Loma Portal area (under today's
Sharpe Cabrillo Hospital). His body and those of other pioneers were exhumed and reburied at the Home of Peace
 in 1939. One assumes that his wife Mathilde (Matilda) and infant daughter Helene are buried near him, but cemetery
 records make no mention of them.
