Clara Jean Rosche, 82, of El Dorado Springs, MO, passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on October 18, 2025. Born at home on Christmas Day, 1942, in Urbana, Missouri, she was the cherished only child of Katie Beaulah and Henry E. Seaton.
Clara was a proud and loving mother to two children, Jim Parker and Angela Flores. For over 25 years, she served with distinction at Fort Leavenworth in the Finance and Accounting Office, where she was admired for her strong work ethic and reliability.
She was first married to Edward Parker, with whom she had her beloved children. Later in life, she found love again with William "Bill" Rosche. Their 32-year union brought her not only companionship but also two cherished step-sons.
Clara found joy in square dancing, watching Little House on the Prairie, listening to Elvis Presley, and spending time at the casino. Her spirited personality and loving heart left a lasting impression on everyone she met.
Clara is survived by her son, Jim Parker and his wife Billee of Kansas City, KS; daughter, Angela Flores of El Dorado Springs, MO; step-sons, Kenneth Rosche and wife Kristen of Basehor, KS, and Scott Rosche and wife Wendy of Lathrop, MO; along with 10 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, and 3 great-great-grandchildren, all of whom brought her immense pride and joy.
Clara's memory will live on in the hearts of her family and friends. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.
There are no services planned at this time.
Cremation arrangements are under the direction and care of the Kidwell-Garber Laurie/Sunrise Beach Chapel.
