1953 - 1976
In life Rose Hawkins was a London flower seller, who had her 'pitch'
outside Charing Cross station. She was first recorded communicating in 1953
and later became instrumental during the recording work of
George Woods and Betty Greene.
Rose describes her life and activities in the Spirit World in simple detail,
from her appearance, to the type of home she inhabits,

Rose's depiction of life in the Spirit World became the benchmark for other communications and was featured in Neville Randall's book 'Life After Death'.
