Rosemary Kennedy Obituary

Published by Legacy on Dec. 14, 2022.
Rosemary K. Kennedy, age 84, of Canton passed away December 11, 2022. She was born May 10, 1938 and was preceded in death by her parents, the late Rudolph and Emma Kreuz (Heck); her husband of 51 years, Conal L. Kennedy; and brothers, William and Frederick Kreuz. Rosemary is survived by her children, Michael (Lindsy) Kennedy, Belinda (Ken) Geiger, and Anita Kennedy; grandchildren, Joshua (Jacy) Kennedy and Marissa Kennedy (the children of Lauri Kennedy), Adam (Cassie) Geiger, Andrew Geiger, Joshua (Brittany) Shanabarger, and Jessica Shanabarger; great-grandchildren, Jacqueline, Joslynn, Sophia, Claire, Owen, Keegan, Jade, Charlotte, Crew, and Nyles.
Rosemary retired from Cleveland Clinic Mercy Hospital after 38 years of service. Her care radiated outside of work as she devoted her entire life to her family. Rosemary had so much love to give to others and never met a stranger. She enjoyed spending time with her family and catching up with friends. Rosemary also made sure no child was ever left alone and always kept her home open to the neighborhood. Her love, care, and devotion to others will be a lasting legacy as family and friends cherish her memory.
The family welcomes guests for Memorial Calling Hours on Monday, December 19, 2022 from 3PM until 5PM with a Memorial Service beginning at 5PM at the Reed Funeral Home CANTON Chapel. Memorial contributions may be made to Rosemary's family. Please visit reedfuneralhome.com to share condolences.
