Rozieasaurus, the Diggin' Dino created for the Rozie Angell Parish family by Jennifer Englin-Gillings, spent the summer of 2007 at the Children's Hospital St. Paul Garden. If Rozieasaurus was anything like the real Rozie, I think I would have liked her. Dare I say the dinosaur shows a woman who loved life, flowers, bugs, and was maybe, just a bit eccentric? I think it's the hat that made me think that. The real Rozie Parish, a native east sider, was St. Paul's first Miss Grand Avenue and graduated from Johnson High School in 1964. Rozieasaurus still stands by the parking lot of St. Paul's Children Hospital.
