Rosella, age 64, passed away on Thursday, September 18, 2025. She was a resident of New Orleans, LA. Rosella faced many challenges in life and met each day with a smile. She took joy in simple things. Rosella gave us the gift of perspective. She reminded us that most of our problems are not really problems, and to be grateful for what we have. We must savor the sweet, beautiful moments we have every day, because ultimately life is fragile and someday all too soon, we must say goodbye. Rosella was preceded in death by her parents, Paul and Joyce Horton. Relatives and friends are invited to attend the graveside service on Friday, September 26, 2025, at Westlawn Memorial Park Cemetery at 10:00 a.m.
