Roseanne was born in Flint on July 28, 1946, the daughter of the late Joseph and Rose (Kupres) Thomas.


She was a graduate of St. Mary's High School and Flint Junior College. Her professional career was spent at the CS Mott Foundation from which she retired. Roseanne was a member of the Croatian Club and SNPJ Lodge 459/677. She was also a life-long member of St. Mary's Catholic Church of Flint where she sang in the choir.
Roseanne's passions in life were dance and music. She began her passion for dance with ballet and loved to dance a kola or polka. Roseanne's Croatian heritage was an integral part of her life. She traveled to many Tamburitza Extravaganza's with her mother and friends. Roseanne spent her retirement enjoying the cottage, thrifting, and caring for her mother.  Neither one of them could resist a good bargain.
She is survived by her nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews who felt honored to care for her this past year. A special shout out to her little time-keeper Gavin. She was preceded in death by her parents Joseph and Rose and brothers Charles and Robert. She also held a special place in her heart for her deceased pets Corky, Matchka and Sarafina.
Thank you to the caring professionals at Triumph Cancer Center and McLaren ICU.

Roseanne and her Mom were the heart and soul of the the Croation Club. I vividly remember watching Roseanne dance the polka on the dance floor after our lamb roasts. We saw one another on occasion at St. Mary's Church. She was so kind and beautiful. I'm sure she will be greatly missed by her family. May she rest in Heaven. Her mother will be happy to see her!
