"Thanks for your kind outreach of support and sympathy over the loss of my mother, Rosemary Gould. She is now at peace, which provides great comfort to my siblings, our spouses and me.

For those who have expressed an interest in offering additional support, we've set up a memorial donation page with the National Women's Pickleball Foundation (a non-profit created to ), in honor of Rosemary’s strength, dedication to those with intellectual and emotional disabilities, and pride in the creation of the Foundation. Donations are completely optional, and your condolences are the most important and cherished gift to me.

My mother was a proud and independent woman, and she was so very delighted, as a former tennis player, with how (in her words) “pickleball was taking the nation by storm.”

Thank you for helping us honor Rosemary’s memory. Your love and support mean the world to me and my family during this difficult time."

With love💔, Catherine Gould Barton
