Rosella Mary Bell

Rosella "Rose" Mary Bell, age 85, of Braham, MN, went home to Jesus on August 25, 2025, while at HCMC Hospital in Minneapolis. She was born on May 4, 1940, in Minneapolis, MN, to Ann and Raymond Buhil, and grew up in Mounds View, MN, alongside her siblings Doris, Raymond, and William (Bill). On November 26, 1960, Rose married the love of her life, Richard Kitchenmaster. Together, they built a home in Circle Pines, MN, and raised a loving family of three sons: Rick, Scott, and Todd. Rose dedicated her life to being a devoted mother, homemaker, and did daycare for many years. She was a sweet lady and had many friends, always making sure everyone felt cared for and welcome. She loved gardening and had a creative eye for landscaping. Rose enjoyed boat rides and time on the side by side cruising the trails and backroads. Rose was overjoyed when she became a Grandma. She adored her grandchildren-Sara Dopp (Kitchenmaster), Shawn Kitchenmaster, Kody Kitchenmaster, and Alicia Kitchenmaster-and treasured every sleepover, trip to the Dollar Tree, and BINGO game. These moments, filled with laughter and love, are treasured by her grandkids and will be carried in their hearts forever. Rose's love extended to her great-grandchildren-Elijah and Allison Dopp, and Ariana Babb-who kept her laughing, shaking her head at 'all that energy,' and feeling young at heart. She loved playing games with them and slipping them a little cash whenever she got the chance. For the past two and a half years, Rose and her beloved dog Rylie lived in Braham with her son Scott and daughter-in-law Lois, whom she "loved to the moon and back." There, she found peace studying her Bible, watching deer wander through the yard, and enjoying the river traffic from her window-though she always thought the boats could slow down just a little. Rose will be remembered for her boundless love, her humor, her spunky spirit, and her unwavering faith. She taught us all how to laugh at life's little moments, love deeply, and never pass up a good bargain at the thrift store. After all, you can never have too many angel figurines. She is preceded in death by her parents Ann and Raymond Buhil; brother William (Bill) Cogger; husbands Richard Kitchenmaster and Charles Bell. She is survived by her sister Doris Hardey 'Buhil', and brother Raymond Buhil (Debbie), Children Rick Kitchenmaster (Cathy), Scott Kitchenmaster (Lois) , Todd Kitchenmaster (Kris), grandchildren Sara (Levi) , Shawn, Kody, and Alicia; and great-grandchildren Elijah and Allison Dopp, and Ariana Babb. She also leaves behind her cherished dog Rylie, along with many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends whom she loved dearly.
