Rose Schuh Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Torbert Funeral Chapels on Dec. 4, 2025.
Rose Marie Schuh of Dover, Delaware passed away Monday November 24th, 2025. She was 89.
She was born June 9th, 1936 in Eddystone, Pennsylvania.
Rose was a devoted homemaker whose kindness touched everyone she met. She attended nursing school in her early years, but her path changed when she met the love of her life, Jack Schuh. Together they built a family and a life filled with warmth and love. She cherished her annual vacations to Sandgate, Vermont; the place where she and Jack honeymooned, where she found peace and joy year after year. Rose loved staying active at the YMCA and treasured the friendships she made there. She had a gentle spirit and took great pleasure in feeding the local wildlife, especially the foxes and squirrels. A social soul at heart, she always enjoyed meeting new people. Rose's friendly nature, welcoming smile and love for those special moments will be remembered by all who knew her.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Jack Schuh; children, Jack (Jacky) Schuh Jr., Eric (Rick) P. Schuh and Diane (Diana) Marie Schuh.
Rose is survived by her son, Scott Schuh and his wife, Sue; grandson, Matthew Jacob (Jake) Schuh; granddaughter, Casey Sewart and her husband, Derak; and many nieces and a nephews.
Thank you to Vitas Hospice and Dover Place. A special thanks to Cindy, Hank, Linda, Jimmy, Wynette, Larry and Julie Chang.
Memorial services will be held 11:00am, Wednesday December 10th, 2025 at Holy Cross, 631 S. State Street, Dover, Delaware.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests contributions be made to the local SPCA..
