Rosemarie, or "Rose” or “Rosie", was born to Sgt. Ray and Armarie Bounds Williams on December 09, 1944, in Houston, Mississippi. She was a 1962 graduate of Calhoun City High School in Calhoun City, Mississippi. While in high school, Rose played the flute and was a majorette in CCHS Marching Band. This was an activity she truly loved along with participating in many Christmas Parades and Band Competitions. She also enjoyed mentoring younger band members.

Rosemarie attended and graduated Wood Junior College in Mathiston, MS in 1964. While working in the family restaurant business in Calhoun City, Rose continued her education taking classes part-time at Ole Miss and Mississippi State in pursuit of becoming a social worker. Those plans were altered in 1967, when Rose met the love of her life, James Kellar at the Belmont Cafe. They married November 3, 1967, and went on to have 4 children, Tim, Jamie, David, Andy in Houston, Texas. James brought his 3-year-old daughter, Rhonda Martin into the family from a previous marriage.

In addition to being a dedicated, loving mother and wife, Rose was also a social butterfly. She loved people and loved telling stories to whomever would lend her an ear. Throughout her entire life, she held an unwavering faith in God, which she shared with those who surrounded her. Rose was also a breast cancer survivor.
