I first met Ann Rose when she and her husband Waymon visited The Sixth Floor Museum in 2002. Waymon recorded an oral history that day, and the Roses returned later in the year and generously donated the journals that they both kept during the Jack Ruby trial, Ann's collection of assassination and trial-related scrapbooks and other unique materials. At the time, Ann was somewhat reluctant to record an interview, but after visiting the Museum several times, she ultimately changed her mind and recorded this insightful oral history with me in 2004. Ann passed away on January 27, 2012. Husband Waymon passed away at the age of 98 in 2020. It was a great privilege to become friends with the Roses in the last years of their lives as they became part of our extended Museum family. Both of them are greatly missed. Ann's handwritten journal from the days surrounding the Jack Ruby trial may be found here: https://emuseum.jfk.org/objects/22421. -- Stephen Fagin, Curator
