I was wondering if you could help me determine the type of rose in the attached images?

My mother died last August after a 2 1/2 year battle with cancer. She loved flowers and roses were her favorite. When I arrived home the day after she died, I was standing outside and saw this rose blooming. I knew she'd planted the roses and was looking forward to them flowering. I was quite taken at how large and lovely this particular bloom was. The roses didn't come back the next year, I don't know if they are annuals or if maybe they died.

But I'd really like to know what type of flowers bloomed so bright for me that day when I felt so sad.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Let me preface this with; There are 'alot' of pink roses.. I could be wrong.

My first thought was 'Queen Elizabeth' which is a Grandiflora

Royal Highness also came to mind, which is a Hybrid Tea.

I'm sorry about your Mom, and hope this helps.
