Rosemarie worked full-time as an RN for many years at St Anthony Hospital in Denver. She was an amazing pianist and had a beautiful singing voice. She was active with the local Sweet Adeline singing organization for several years. She loved a variety of music, barbershop, classical, American Songbook, country and many other varieties. She loved to travel, be it abroad or driving trips. She loved going out for a drive, long road trips or just around town. One of her favorite things in life was keeping updated on events of every friend, family member and all of their friends. Saint Anthony's Catholic Church in Hoven was a very important part of her youth and was always an important part of her. She was a devout member and supporter of Notre Dame Catholic Church in Denver for over 50 years.

 She was truly loved and will be greatly missed.
