Sandy, as she was known to her family and friends, was born in Eureka, California in 1934 to Jack and Lavina Rose. After earning her nursing degree in California, Sandy worked in various areas of nursing and worked as a medical claims analyst. A long time parishioner at St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church, Sandy was a woman of faith. During her free time, she enjoyed volunteering at Arlington Memorial Hospital, quilting, watching sports, reading murder mysteries, but nothing brought her more joy than spending time with her family.
Sandy is preceded in death by her parents and brother, Royal Rose. She is survived by her son Gregory, daughter Sharon (David), son Kenny (Mary), three grandchildren, and numerous other family members and friends.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to St. Anthony’s Bread Food Pantry at St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church or Mission (Metroplex) Arlington.
A memorial service will be held at St. Maria Goretti Catholic Church, 1200 S Davis Dr, Arlington, TX 76013, on Friday, June 21, 2019 at 11:00 a.m.
