Jeremiah Shea's Roses

Not to steel Walt's thunder, BUT...

When we lived in the Shea house at Foster, there were many roses in front of that house.  If you look closely at the photo at:

You can see them along the wooden walkway between the house and the highway.  On either side (along the front edge of the property), there were "rambling roses"; red.  I can't swear that Mr. Shea planted these roses, but I'd like to think so.

One day the Highway Department "improved" HWY 20 by bull dozing the rambling roses.

I've not seen any of the roses that were there in the 1940's since.
