Delilah "Lily" Sipila

Delilah "Lily" Jade Sipila, known to many by her wrestling ring name "Macauly Rose," passed away peacefully on January 4, 2026, leaving behind a profound and lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
She was born and raised in Chicago, IL, and moved with her mother to Minneapolis, MN, at the age of 8. Throughout her life, Lily enjoyed photography, debate, and athletics, participating in soccer and rugby. The latter, a sport she found great success in and continued beyond her high school years for the Twin Cities Amazons. Her main lifelong passion however, was professional wrestling, and in her 20s, she began training to become a professional wrestler herself.
After many years of training, she broke through on the Midwest independent circuit under the moniker Lena Solana, and within a year changed her name to Macauly Rose, paying tribute to her late friend Macauly, whom she had grown up with in Chicago. Throughout her remaining years, she stood out in the wrestling world as a vibrant soul whose presence could light up a room. She carried herself with strength, warmth, and authenticity, and she had a way of making people feel seen and valued. Whether through her laughter, her kindness, or her determination, Lily left an impression that will not be forgotten, both in and out of the ring.
She was deeply loved by her family and friends, and her memory will live on through her husband, Andrew; her mother, Miriam; her sister, Fallon; her niece, Maya; her aunts, Marlyn and Margaret; her uncle, Milton; and her special cousin, Amesha, among a host of other nieces and nephews.
All will continue to honor her life by carrying her memory forward with love, gratitude, and strength.
A funeral service to celebrate Lily's life will be held on January 9, 2026, at Klecatsky and Sons Funeral Homes in West St. Paul, visitation starting at 10AM, and funeral service at 11AM. All who knew and loved Lily are welcome to attend and share in remembering her life.
In lieu of flowers, the family invites those who wish to honor Lily's memory to do so in a way that feels meaningful to them.
