Rosaleen.

Rosaleen is the maid of the house that Lily and her father live in. She began working for them when Lily's mother had passed away. She was an African-American woman who "T.Ray" had taken out of the Peach Orchids to help their torn apart family with maintaining the house and helping Lily grow up. "She lived alone in a little house tucked back in the woods, not far from us, and came every day to cook,clean, and be my stand in mother" was the quote by Lily that was used to describe her relationship with Rosaleen.
