Rosemary's obituary

Rosemary LaCour

NOVEMBER 8, 1948 – NOVEMBER 26, 2022

On November 26,2021 we lost the most wonderful women on earth, Rosemary LaCour, better known as Rosie. She fought a courageous battle against stage four cancer for seven months. She was surrounded by her family when she passed away at her home in Palm Springs, California. She leaves behind an adoring husband of fifty-two years, Jim LaCour, daughters Melia LaCour and Amie Cota , as well as her sister Diane Fernandes-Lisi and her brother Tommy Fernandes. I can’t begin to mention her many extended family members and wide circle of friends and colleagues she has had over the years. She was born in Artesia, California to Joseph and Vielmina Fernandes on November 8, 1948. She attended Cornelia Connelly High School. Rosie graduated from Seattle University in 1971 with a Bachelor of Arts and in 1982 with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, where she received the SR. M. Ruth Neihoff Award as most outstanding nursing student. She worked for Providence/Swedish Hospitals for over thirty years until she retired as Clinic Administrator in 2018. She was brilliant, ambitious, incredibly generous, an avid golfer, and knew how to enjoy life. She was so full of love - a mother to many people. We thank God for the opportunity to share a life with Rosie. We kindly ask you to please donate to the American Cancer Society in her honor.
