Roswitha Eck

Roswitha was born November 6, 1949 in Bad Schwalbach, Germany to Stefan and Elizabeth Huber.

After graduating from high school, she knew what she wanted to do with her life, to make nursing a career. She was ultimately accepted into a Nursing Degree program. After two years into the program, she married and moved to the United States where she put her nursing degree on hold to start a family. She resumed her career in nursing while living in Washington DC and continued passionately to help patients after moving to Florida. She took several roles in the health care industry fostering a reputation of caring, leadership and professionalism that awarded distinction among peers.

Rose care didn’t end at work. She spent her free time caring for her grandchildren taking them to soccer and football practice and games. She was a member of “Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church”.

Rose is survived by her husband Carl Eck of Palm Bay, Florida, daughter Tanja Carroll (Gary) McFarland of Richmond, Indiana, son Patrick (Keely) Carroll of Palm Bay, Florida, son Markus (Jill) Huber of Richmond, Indiana and son Jody (Breanna) Eck of Palm Bay, Florida. She is also survived by ten grandchildren, Brandi, Stefan, Bret, Rayc, Kenzie, Kali, Jenna, Kamryn, Zoey, and Charlie.

Rose will be deeply missed by family and friends. A visitation for Roswitha will be held Tuesday, February 15, 2022 at 11:00 AM at Fountainhead Funeral Home, 7359 Babcock Street SE, Palm Bay, FL 32909, followed by a Graveside Service.
