Rosario Montallana Handshoe, a caring individual who enjoyed her time with family and friends, passed away on February 9, 2026, at the age of 72. Born on November 17, 1953, in Manila, Philippines.

In addition to her immediate family, she was a grandmother to Jordan, Christopher, Devon, Gage, Alyssa, and Lily, who will carry forth her legacy of love and care.
