Rosemary was born April 16, 1940 and was the treasured daughter of the late Orazio and Rose Troia of Terrasini, Sicily. She grew up in Detroit, Michigan and graduated from Detroit Denby High School. Soon afterwards she met the love of her life Ronald C Paradoski who she married on April 30, 1960. Together they enjoyed a full life of golfing and traveling throughout the world with so many amazing friends.
Rosemary cherished her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She enjoyed watching and attending their sporting events, dances, school activities and cooking wonderful Italian meals together. She was so proud of all their accomplishments and looked forward to her growing family getting together. She was known as Nana, Grammie, Mom, Roe, Rose, Rosemary and Friend. Whenever you needed her, she would drop everything to help or participate.
Rosemary became a business owner of a party supply company which was the perfect place for her since she enjoyed decorating for every holiday the yearly calendar noted. After selling the business she continued her holiday decorating for several commercial buildings in the area. In her later years she enjoyed volunteering for many organizations near and dear to her heart.
Ron and Rosemary lived in several different areas where they gained so many friends who together enjoyed many different recreational activities. From Pinnacle Club, Mahjong group, golf leagues, plays, and baseball games, they continued to stay busy and live, laugh and love.
Rosemary was preceded in death by her husband Ronald Paradoski, parents Orazio and Rose Troia, grandson Timothy Kmiec Jr and son in law Lary Blahnik.
