Always a mother first, Rosie was a hardworking homemaker who would do anything for her family. Spending her best days at their cabin in the Codroy Valley, she prided herself in taking care of her and Abey John's special place. From keeping up her beautiful garden, to baking and knitting, Rosie always kept herself busy. She enjoyed a game of bingo and was always up for a game of cards, whether at the local senior's club or with friends and family. She enjoyed day trips in the car and was always a grateful passenger. Blessed to have family all over, Rosie loved to travel to ensure she had quality time with them all. Rosie was very special to all who knew her and will be missed beyond words.

In keeping with her wishes, cremation has taken place. There will be no formal gathering at this time, the family will announce the interment at a later date.
