Obituary
Rosemarie was born in Arron, Saskatchewan to Alvetus and Annie Anderson on January 24, 1937. She is survived by her husband of 62 years, Morris; three children, Lorie, Bill, and Ron; four grandchildren, Bryce, Eric, Brandon, and Brittan; one great-grandchild, Jayden; and a large extended family.
Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die.

Is this the same Rose who worked as Head Cook at Olympic Center in Bellingham? I remember her and her sweet disposition and good food she served. She always had a smile and was fun to work with.
This was years ago, but she is still a good memory of working there. If it’s the same Rose, I know her family is missing her.
Love, Carolee Massey

Sanford Family, I am so sorry to see that Rose has passed. I worked with her so many years ago, both at Alderwood Convalescent, and Olympic Treatment Center. She was so fun to work with, and taught me so much. I have not seen her in a while, the last time was when we met while out shopping, she never changed, always smiling and laughing, she was such a caring and happy person. We are all fortunate to have known her. Please accept my sincere condolences.

My sincere condolences to Morris and her family! Rose had to be the sweetest, kindest, most talented lady I have ever known. I will never forget the Christmas parties “us girls” always looked forward to that she had and attended. I still have so many of her “go to” recipes she had given to us. It didn’t matter where we met up or where we were together, she always, had a kind word for everyone! And most of all, she always made us laugh thru some not so pleasant experiances. I know, she is in heaven, watching over all us of, because she was the most special angel all of her life. Rest in peace, sweet Rose, you will be so missed, and thank you for making my time with you so pleasant and full of happy memories of the times we were together! My prayers and thoughts are with you all!
