Jamie Luanne Rosenlund

Jamie Luanne Rosenlund, age 34, passed away at her parents’ home near Harrington, WA on April 16, 2022. Jamie was born August 17, 1987, in Gillette, WY to Louis and Mary Rosenlund. From infancy Jamie had cerebral palsy, a disorder that limited her physically but highlighted her happy and accepting nature. Jamie had a sparkling sense of humor. She was patient and accepting of her own limitations and with the people who cared for her. Especially near the end of her life, Jamie often thanked those around her. She also asked them to pray for her. We have learned from Jamie’s example.

Following the death of her father in 1993, Jamie welcomed another dad when her mother married Paul Kysar in 2007. She is survived by her parents, Paul and Mary Kysar of Harrington, three brothers; Wesley (Amy) Rosenlund of Gillette, WY, Warren (Marcy) Rosenlund of Yacolt WA, Chap (Joni) Rosenlund of Belle Fourche, SD; six sisters; Sharla (Pete) Paso and Sheila (Owen) Ek of Battle Ground, WA, Marilu (Kyle) Sarkinen of Amboy, WA, Denise (Bill) Sarkkinen of Big Lake, AK, Holly (Dale) Halme of Cheney WA, Jo Lynne Rosenlund of Harrington WA. Jamie is also survived by Paul’s 11 children, many nieces and nephews, great nieces and nephews and a large host of family, friends and caregivers. Jamie was preceded in death by her father, Louis Rosenlund, nephew, Noah Paso, paternal grandparents, James and Virginia Rosenlund, and maternal grandparents Reazo and Evelyn Redinger.

Jamie’s family wishes to thank all the staff at ARS Assisted Living, and at Sacred Heart Hospital in Spokane, WA, as well as the staff at the Hill Street House in Spearfish, SD. They all took wonderful care of Jamie while giving her independence and quality of life. Words cannot express our gratitude to the beloved ladies who cared for and loved Jamie here at home the last 2 months of her life.
