David Rose Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Jansen Family Funeral Home & Cremation Services on Dec. 17, 2025.
David M. Rose, known for his thoughtful nature, creative spirit, and humor, passed away on November 13, 2025, in Columbiaville, Michigan. Born on January 18, 1957, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, David's journey through life was marked by dedication, love, and an unwavering sense of duty.
David leaves behind his son, Eric (Rob) Rose, his brothers, Dan (Linda) Rose and Duwane (Cindy) Rose. He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Ruth, and his parents, Dale and Doris Rose.
A patriot at heart, David served his country proudly as a member of the United States Army, where he was stationed as Military Police. His service was a testament to his commitment to the nation and its values. After his military tenure, David's path led him to the love of his life, Ruth, whom he married on July 18, 1981, in Lapeer, Michigan. They built a life filled with love until Ruth's passing.
David enjoyed golfing and watching sports. His daily walks with his beloved dog, Schatzi, were a source of comfort and companionship. His sweet tooth was legendary, and he never passed up an opportunity to indulge in a treat. Previously a member of the NRA. He was a man who found pleasure in the simple things in life.
David was fortunate to have neighbors who became more than just friends. Special thanks are extended to Tyler and Bella, Mike and Pat, Todd and Kandi, for their unwavering support and companionship. They were a source of comfort and joy throughout his life, especially in his later years.
Cremation has taken place, and no services are planned. Arrangements entrusted to Jansen Family Funeral Home – Columbiaville. Share memories, condolences, and pictures with the family at www.jansenfuneralhome.com.
