Rose Lyons Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Alexander & Royalty Funeral Home - Harrodsburg on Jan. 16, 2026.
Rose Marie Lyons, 69, wife for Fifty Three Years to Robert A. Lyons, died Wednesday, January 14, 2026 at Ephraim McDowell James B. Haggin Hospital. Born October 14, 1956 in Kenton County, she was the daughter of the late Ed and Ella Cooley Henninger. She was a homemaker, a member of Calvary Baptist Church, and was lovingly known as the caretaker for her family and friends. Rose Marie's love for others was much deeper than the love for herself.
Survivors besides her husband include one son Mark (Marsha) Lyons of Mercer County; two daughters: Kelli (Robert) Ladd of Harrodsburg and Amy (Scotty) Sanders of Mercer County; two sisters: Betty (Timmy) Sanders of Mercer County and Marilyn Spaulding of Stanford; three brothers: Tommy (Terry) Henninger, Shawn Henninger, and Chad Henninger all of Harrodsburg; five grandchildren: Cedric Lyons, Savannah Huff, Jessica Ladd, Katlynn Sanders, and Carly Sanders; one great grandson Lukas Sanders and several nieces and nephews also survive.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at a later date.
