Rose Marie Babb, born on September 4, 1945, passed away on October 6, 2024, at the age of 79. She was a woman of deep faith and devotion, cherishing her love for church and God throughout her life. She also found joy in the whimsical world of clowns, bringing laughter and light to those around her.
Rose is remembered as a straightforward and matter-of-fact person, someone who faced life with honesty and practicality. Despite not having much financially, she ensured that her family never went without. Her strength and resourcefulness were evident in the way she opened her heart and home to children in need, providing them with love and sustenance.
Rose was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Lewis Babb Sr.; her cherished daughter, Theresa Donathan; and her dear grandchild, Angel Pittman.
Rose leaves behind a large, loving family who will continue to cherish her memory: six children, twenty grandchildren, and thirty-four great-grandchildren. Her legacy lives on in each of them, as they carry forward her values of love, faith, and unwavering kindness.
Rose Marie Babb will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her unwavering love, generosity, and commitment to family and faith left an indelible mark on the hearts of those she touched.
