Obituary
Condolences

Rose Marie Junker (Schraivogel), 86, wife of 66 years to Thomas Junker, Mother to Jerry (Eileen) Junker, Judy (Tom) Jennings and Julie (Mark) Rettig. Grandmother to Doug, Dan (Hannah), Lynn (Josh), Victoria, Charissa, Ryan, Nathan, Andrew and Abbie, and great grandmother to Carson, due in June. She died peacefully surrounded by her family.

Rosie was employed at McDonald’s for 33 years and was known by many for her daily caring and friendly attitude. She was a Kentucky Colonel and loved traveling with her family, especially camping with her kids when they were young and traveling with her husband to Germany, where her parents were born. She treasured visits with her grandchildren, who were clearly the joy of her life. She also enjoyed quiet pleasures, like watching the birds in her backyard, working crossword puzzles with her husband, Tom, or regularly watching the Reds and Bengals. She knew no strangers. Anyone she met became a friend. Her faith filled her life. She loved everyone and everyone loved her. The world is a bit better because of her.

A visitation will be held on Tuesday, May 16, 2023, from 5:00 pm-8:00 pm at Linnemann Funeral Homes, 30 Commonwealth Ave., Erlanger, KY 41018. Mass of Christian Burial will be on Wednesday, May 17, 2023, 10:30 at St. Paul Catholic Church, 7301 Dixie Hwy, Florence, KY 41042.  Rosie will be laid to rest at Mother of God Cemetery.

A Beautiful and Inspirational Life

Although I did not know “Rosie” [as her husband pointed out] when I spoke with him after the Service at St Paul’s, I felt
I did in a spiritual way after listening to her son Jerry’s eulogy of her life and talking with family members and others.
The message of leaving the “camp site” and the “day” better than you find it, is a guide for all of us.
Peace and Love, Tom Conlan Jr
