Rosalie was born in Winnipeg May 22, 1938. She grew up in the Hola School District north of Baldur.  There on the family farm she gained a love of animals that stayed with her throughout her life. She met and married Warren and raised the four girls on the family farm at Cypress River.  She supported the agricultural societies, 4-H clubs, rink committees and many other organizations to help improve the community.

Rosalie later worked for the Tiger Hills Arts Association, enjoying bringing in various concerts and arts related events to the area.

She loved the outdoors and loved being close to nature.  She spent many hours watching the birds and animals that are around the yard and in the wild. Her favorite experience was while sitting in a bush watching for elk and having a cow and calf come within feet of her. Rosalie loved when friends and family visited and often loved a good tale shared with laughter. She also spent many hours going for drives and checking on the horse trails for the Friends of Spruce Woods.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Friday August 5, 2022 at 1pm in Willmor Chapel, Glenboro, MB with Sandra Rex officiating.  Following the service interment will take place in Bru Frikirkja Lutheran Cemetery, Cypress River, MB.  A reception will be held in the Glenboro United Church C.E.
