Rose Ann is best remembered for her kindness. To be in her presence was a special experience as she freely gave away compliments and kindness to every person she met. It was always an ego boost to be around Rose Ann because she made every person feel loved and seen.

She loved being at home with her menagerie of pets and plants. Having been an only child, her family was her world. She constantly marveled at how lucky she was to inherit such a big, wonderful family when she married Gary. Many of the golden years of her life were spent hosting family at her house with her late husband, Gary. Nothing made her happier than to be surrounded by family, pets, and love.

Rose Ann was a deep lover of animals and nature. From the many pets that she nurtured throughout her life including notable family pets Jake, Sadie, Buster, Max, Sammy Sue, Dusty, Bella, and Baxter to all the flora and fauna that dwelled on their property.
