Rosemary Vella-Robertson Obituary
Rosemary Vella-Robertson, age 83, of Mountain Home, Arkansas left this world to be with Jesus Christ on Saturday, November 8, 2014, at her residence. She was born July 28, 1931, in Chicago, Illinois where she raised her three daughters with her beloved late husband, Joseph L. Vella. Her parents were Leo and Carmella (Salvatore) Vaccaro. Joseph and she retired to Fountain Hills, Arizona in 1991, and after living there, she moved to Mountain Home in 2007, to be closer to her beloved family.
She will be missed by her three daughters Joanne (Roger) Boskus and Patricia (Marty) Scully, and Gale (John) Virgoni. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother who will be missed by all.
Rosemary was grandmother to seven grandsons, Roger, Joseph and Thomas Boskus, Guy and Joe Virgoni and Edward and Jeff Schultz, as also her namesake granddaughter, Rosemary, to whom she referred to as "her little flower." Her thirteen great-grandchildren also feel the loss of their Nana, but all appreciate she is in a better place.
She is survived by her loving brother George (Kathy) Rosner of Inverness, Illinois and her loving sister, Geri Marino of Sun Lakes, Arizona.
A Funeral Mass will be 10:00 a.m. Wednesday, November 12, 2014, at St. Peter the Fisherman Catholic Church with Reverend Norbert Rappold Celebrant. Visitation will be Tuesday from 3:30 until 6:30 p.m. at the funeral home. Entombment will be in Green Acres Cemetery in Scottsdale, Arizona.
In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to Hospice of the Ozarks.
