Rosie was born on June 13th, 1959, in Clinton, IA. to Richard and Lillian (Taylor) Rosenboom. He was the oldest of four children, Larry (Ludella) Rosenboom, Loraine Rosenboom, and Ronnie (Kristen) Rosenboom. He grew up loving to be the center of attention and could always make you laugh. He was very family oriented and had a passion for sports and classic cars. He pursued a career as a very talented machinist and welder, he was employed by a few very well-known local businesses such as Lewis Machine and Tool, Rock Island Arsenal, and just recently retired from Doors Incorporated.

He was a very proud father of two boys and the Daughter-in-laws' they granted him with, Joey (Harmonie) Rosenboom and Colt (Laneya) Rosenboom.

He was preceded in death by his Parents, Richard and Lillian (Taylor) Rosenboom as well as his very close buddy David Delcourt.
