Rosann left her small town for New Jersey to be trained by Bell Telephone and became a switchboard operator. Next she moved to Detroit to train and work at Northwest Orient Airlines. While in Detroit Rosann met her husband Al. They settled in Mt. Clemens, MI where she gave birth to five sons. Tragically her husband Al passed away unexpectedly in 1960. Four years later Rosann and her five sons relocated to San Diego, CA. She worked Civil Service for the US Navy and transitioned to the Social Security Administration where she retired. Rosann was a phenomenal baker, cook and mother who showered her children with wonderful meals, unconditional love and the meaning of faith.
