In her younger years she was a seamstress and made many of her children's clothes. Rose loved visiting with family and friends, playing sheepshead and bingo. She instilled a good work ethic to her family and a strong catholic religion. She was a member of St. Paul Catholic Church, Combined Locks.

      Rose's family would like to thank the staff of Parkside Care Center for the wonderful care they gave our mother and grandmother.

      I have fought the good fight,

      I have finished the race,

      I have kept the faith.

      Henceforth there is laid

      up for me a crown

      of righteousness.

      II Timothy 4:7-8
