She helped to feed, bathe and assist the older people at the Home. For many years, the petite little lady worked in the kitchen of Shady Rest . She loved Shady Rest and her fellow residents often expressing concern for its’ future. “I used to get up t 5 a.m.” she said in an interview in 1990, “ to start cooking. Everybody like my cooking and I sure like everybody here.” At Shady Rest, she picked strawberries, hoed the garden, milked cows and made her own cottage cheese and butter. She remembered carrying water for resident’s showers and baths in big marble bowls. When Mrs. Harold Kruger, a past administrator of the Home, organized a trip to the Holy Land, Rosie , who had never been anywhere….went.” She had a wonderful time. Later she visited England, Scotland and Ireland. She loved to visit with folks and to show-off her collection of angel and cat figurines. She was especially fond of cats. She loved to attend Mass at St. Michael’s, and have lunch with the Harvest House group. Rosie enjoyed summer retreats at Ancilla Domini, and was a member of Christian Women.
