Surviving are children: Sheri (Jim) Kallembach of DeKalb, IL, Carol (John) Cobble of Champaign, IL and Gerald Moorman of Attica, IN.

Rosemary was employed at Sears in Champaign as a major appliance sales associate for 27 years prior to her retirement in 1998. She was a member of The First Baptist Church of Tolono where she also taught Sunday School and led a home Worship Team for many years. She enjoyed doing all types of puzzles, traveling with her late husband, visiting her growing family, and giving and receiving hugs. Her words she lived by were, "It is always a joy to teach God's Word and it is exciting to read, and learn the truths He has for each of us." She truly was a servant of God teaching and walking with her Savior.

Her family has much gratitude to Brookdale Urbana and Transitions Care for the loving care she received.

 In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The First Baptist Church of Tolono, 204 W. Holden, Tolono, IL 61880.
