Rose YANGER Obituary
22, lifelong resident of Tampa, died on Wednesday, Aug. 24, 2016. Rosie was a graduate of Plant High School. She was an accomplished softball pitcher for the school as well as a member of local and national championship teams. She was well-traveled, taking her love of adventure and her many scuba diving certifications to exotic destinations around the world including New Zealand, Tahiti, Fiji, Costa Rica, Barbados, Belize, Mexico, and the Bahamas. Rose cherished spending time on any beach and always found peace in or near the sea. Survivors include her father and step-mother, Bill Yanger and Sherry McDonaugh; mother and stepfather, Felicia and David Sable; brother, Zachary Yanger; sister, and her fiance;, Rachel Yanger and Josh Munch; step-siblings, Kelli and Martin McDonaugh and Benjamin Sable; paternal grandparents, Bill and Betty Yanger; maternal grandparents, Julia and Henry Kinstlinger; along with numerous aunts, uncles, and extended family. Rose's spirited laugh, sparkling smile and over-sized personality were renowned. Her softball community knew her as "Hollywood". She loved her many dear friends in her Ft. Lauderdale recovery family. Rose was always eager to encourage and comfort friends in need of love and support and freely absorbed their love and support in return. She lit up every room she entered and left those rooms full of smiling faces. Truly, no wick could hold her dancing flame. Funeral services will be held Monday, 11 am at Congregation Rodeph Sholom, 2713 Bayshore Boulevard, Tampa. Interment will follow at Garden of Memories Cemetery. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made in Rose's name through facethemusicfoundation.org to assist in providing resources for those unable to fund their recovery.

There hasn’t been a day these past 4 years that you haven’t been in my thoughts. So much has happened as you know. Those are the times that you’re missed even more. Surely you’ve had some great laughs, some tears, but mostly you’ve smiled and nodded. As you watch us fools doing our best to live, know that you are missed every second of each day and are loved, greatly. ❤

I met Rose at an adventure camp in the summer of 2011 . We travelled around Costa Rica and Belize for over 3 weeks. I have nothing but the best memories to share . She was the coolest girl , with an amazing attitude.
I remeber we hiked, we scuba dived, we river rafted, we played sports on the beach among other insanely fun things .
We shared the same level of intensity which generated an amazing bond between us. Her presence enhanced my experience at this camp in so many ways . This news really shocked me , my thoughts go out to family and friends ....
I am aware of what Rose was worth so I understand and share the sorrow with all the other people that loved and cherished her .
Hope I get the privilege of meeting her in my next life !

I am deeply sorry for your loss. The beautifully written obituary was so true and I am blessed to have witnessed Rose's beautiful smile and kind energy light up a room. She was a gift to all who surrounded her and will be deeply missed. Thank you all for sharing your daughter's compassion and kindness with us. There is clearly an empty space here in Ft.
