ROSE M. MICHALS, born in Nashville, Tennessee, entered the presence of her Lord and Savior on August 26, 2025. A woman of deep faith and quiet strength, she lived her life rooted in the promise of Psalm 91: “Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.’”
Rose was a devoted member of Strongsville Christian Church, where she found joy in worship and service. She loved to share the Good News of Christ with others, faithfully passing along Our Daily Bread pamphlets to friends, neighbors, and strangers alike. Her sense of humor, kindness, prayers, and encouragement touched countless lives.
She was preceded in death by her husband, James P. Michals, and her parents, Everett and Hazel Reid.
Rose is survived by her children Michaela (Matt) Stevenson of Flower Mound, Texas, Daniel Geldreich of Ocala, Florida, and Richard Willis of San Antonio, Texas; her sister Leona (Charlie) Ingram; her grandchildren James Michals, Dana Gradwell, and Chris Gradwell; and her great-grandchildren Elliot Stevenson and Jack Michals.
Even as the flowers of this life fade, the beauty of Rose’s bloom endures in memory and spirit. She now rests in the eternal garden of her Lord, sheltered under His wings forevermore.
Graveside service Friday, August 29, 11:30 AM at Riverside Cemetery (3607 Pearl Rd. Cleveland, OH) PLEASE MEET INSIDE FRONT GATE.
