Rose is going to be remembered as a vibrant and caring woman. She was someone who loved to make friends and could make friends anywhere she went. She had a welcoming demeanor that made it easy for people to talk to her. She was a devoted Christian and dedicated member of Quispamsis United Church. Rose and her late husband, Frederick, were married for over 40 years and were high school sweethearts. When it came time to raise a family, Rose was all in. She loved being a mother and was a dedicated mom to not only her own children but to their friends as well. Rose was a smart woman who loved to learn and experience new things in life. She was incredibly proud of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and loved watching her family grow. She spent her working years working as a sales associate with Crescent Jewelers as well as selling makeup and fashion accessories- when she had the opportunity to do bridal makeup she was truly in her creative element. Rose had a soft voice but could command any room. She loved traveling in her later years, experiencing many adventures with her family and friends.
