She was born in 1927 in Butte, Montana to Walter ("Monk") and Nora ("Nora") Cannon. She married Gene Rosellini in 1949. They moved to China Lake/Ridgecrest in 1964, where she worked on the base as a systems analyst in the Supply Department, retiring as a branch head. Upon her retirement, she and Dad moved to Bakersfield in 1987. They have 4 children: Bonni and Doug Mallory and their children James and Kimberly of Fort Bragg, California; Kathy Rosellini, Mike and Patty Rosellini of Bakersfield, and Mary Rosellini of Fresno. Mom is survived by her sister, Doris Boyle, of Butte, Montana, and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by our Dad in 2003, her parents, and sisters- and brothers-in-law. Mom was active with the Women's Guild of Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish and the Golden Aires Senior Choir for a number of years. She enjoyed a good game of bridge (or any card game, for that matter), working a crossword puzzle, singing, and reading. The family wishes to express their gratitude to Dr. William Baker for his many years of compassionate care of our Mom, as well as the staffs at Bakersfield Memorial Hospital (especially Ike), the Rehab Center of Bakersfield, and The Summit. You are all a credit to your profession. She was the best Mom, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend anyone could ever hope for. Her positive and cheerful disposition will be missed by so many! While we mourn the loss of our precious Irish rose, we are comforted in the knowledge that she is with Dad now. Rest peacefully, Mom. We love you. A funeral mass will be celebrated at Our Lady of Perpetual Help church on Saturday, March 2, 2013 at 12:00 noon. Private inurnment at Green Lawn will take place.
