Rose was a loving mother, homemaker, child-care teacher and friend to everyone she met. She especially enjoyed spending every possible moment with her 3 grandchildren Alex, Emma and Chloe. She had a special knack for spoiling them and knowing how to make them smile and feel her love. They were truly the apples of her eyes. She cherished time with her family and will truly be remembered as a loving mother, Nana (Nanny) and friend who will be deeply missed.
Rose had a strong faith, and was an active member of the United Methodist Church in Princeville, IL for years.Â
