Rosa was born in Kuetzberg, Germany, to Adam and Anna Albert on February 27, 1929. Mother of two sons, devoted homemaker and Army wife, Mrs. Reed loved four things more than anything else in the world: 1. family and her soap operas, 2. knitting, 3. cooking, and 4. gardening. Rosa was always going 90 to nothing, she was a hard worker and took care of everyone else, but when she wasn’t, you could find her enjoying a cold beer. We will always remember her determination, wisdom, and loving nature. We will forever be grateful to her for all she has shared and bestowed upon her family.
Rosa was preceded in death by three husbands, James Tressler, Paul Pevitt and Thomas Reed.
Survivors include her two sons, Dr. Robert Tressler (Lori) and granddaughters, Sarah Tressler and Laura Costanza, John Pevitt (Kim) and grandson, Zachary Pevitt (Chelsea) and granddaughter, Lily Pevitt, several great grandchildren and numerous siblings.
