Rosemarie Sylvester Obituary
Rosemarie was born September 1, 1941 to Robert and Mary (Antonacci) Clark in Corning, NY. She graduated from Northside High School and attended Arnot Ogden School of Nursing.
She was a beautiful woman inside and out with a smile always on her face. She never met a stranger. She lived most of her adult life in Melbourne, Florida raising her children and being a homemaker. When her children were grown she went to work as a Supervisor for Rockwell-Collins Aeronautics.
Rosemarie loved to read and to cook. Having family and friends enjoying her cooking was her happy time. Listening to her ABBA records and cooking brought her great joy.
She was predeceased by her parents, her brother Patrick Clark and many aunts, uncles, a cousin and her special fur baby Bob.
She loved her children and grandchildren with all her heart and was so very proud of all of them. She is survived by her son Charles (Mary) Coats of Melbourne, Florida, her daughter Kelli Coats of Palm Bay, Florida her sister Diane (Tom) Pierri, of Painted Post, New York, her grandchildren Christine and Cristofer Coats of Freedom, Pennsylvania, Deein and Damea Coats of Palm Bay, Florida, great-grandchildren Aubrey Moore of Freedom, Pennsylvania and Laiken Coats of Melbourne, Florida.
A celebration of Rosemarie's life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, read a book, cook a meal for someone or do a random act of kindness for a stranger. If you would like to donate in Rosemarie's name, please donate to a no-kill animal shelter.

I will always remember Rosie as a kind person with a beautiful smile. We went to high school together and when she moved to Florida I had lunch with her and her husband because we lived only about 20 minutes from them.

Rosemarie and I graduated from Northside High School in 1959. I remember her fondly from our high school years. We had a very nice conversation on the occasion of preparing for our 50th reunion. May she rest in peace, and prayers for comfort go out to her family and friends.
