Rose M. Palochick

Rose Marie "Pitchie" Palochick, 86, of Harwick, passed away on Friday, June 13, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. She was the beloved wife for 64 years of the late Michael Palochick; loving mother of Susan Butela, Michael Palochick, and Steven Palochick; grandmother of Joseph Butela and Chelsea (Johannes) Scheiffarth; sister of Bernadette Bassetti, Patricia (the late Stan) Lawrence, Lawrence Bassetti, David (Tracy) Bassetti, Thomas Bassetti, and the late Robert (Rose) Strellec; aunt to Dana Strellec; and daughter of the late Mary Bassetti. Rose was a woman whose heart knew no bounds; she took everyone in as her own. Her grandchildren were her pride and joy. Rose's love for life's simple pleasures, such as the joy she found in her daily viewings of the Hallmark Channel and QVC, chocolate, and Ronny, the family dog. She found peace on her trips to Cook Forest and Rehoboth Beach. Rose's family would like to thank the Interim Hospice caregivers who were angels on earth! There will be no visitation, but a celebration of life will be held at a later date. Professional services entrusted to THOMAS M.
