Rosemary ("Rosie") Ann Kungl (née Kurosky) was born on July 25, 1941, and passed away after a long, courageous battle with dementia on June 29, 2025, in Richfield, Ohio. Rosemary survived her husband, Martin Kungl, of 48 years and left behind her children: Martin (Julie) of Broadview Heights, Ohio; David (Faina) of New York City; Christine Kungl of Austin, Texas; and grandchildren Michael, Patrick, Brian, Adam, Alex, Jackie, Max, and Ava.
She was born in Green, Ohio, to Martin Kurosky and Katherine Ann Stehler, who both preceded her in death. After graduating from Green High School, Rosemary met her beloved husband Martin at the German American Club in 1958, and they wed in 1960. Rosemary loved her family, her faith, dancing the night away to the golden oldies, movies, cooking and sewing. She was famous for her chocolate and peanut butter buckeye candies. She was active in her church and her children's and grandchildren's endeavors. Especially close to her brother John Kurosky (Roxanne) of Seattle, Washington-who passed away in 2022-she enjoyed traveling with him through the years. Rosemary had the gift of gab and a bubbly, outgoing personality; she was a friend to everyone and will be missed by all who knew her.
