Tributes
Evelyn June Rose was born on August 27, 1931 in Dayton, Kentucky. She attended William Carey College and graduated with a degree in Business. She spent many years as a successful apartment manager for Boston Financial.
Outside of work she enjoyed playing many different types of games and working crossword puzzles. She loved listening to southern gospel music and attending concerts. She also loved to bowl. While she was a member of the seniors bowling league in Florence, KY, she won several championships. She was a strong woman with a beautiful smile, and great love for God. She was a member of the Nazarene faith and attended church on a regular basis and read her Bible daily until she was physically unable.
She is described by her family as loving, caring, fun, silly, perfectionist, provider, and protector with a bit of feistiness and stubbornness sprinkled in.
Her heavenly Father peacefully welcomed her into His arms on the morning of November 18, 2015 after a decade long battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. She was very blessed to be loved and cared for by the staff of Woodland Village Nursing Center and Odyssey Gentiva Hospice.
She was greeted in heaven by her husband Will Tilma Rose and her mother Sarah Elizabeth Dunckley, father Delmar Maples, and brother Herman Maples. She is survived by her sister Mary Ruth McDowell of Falmouth, KY; and five children, David Porter of Kiln, MS; June Moody and husband James of Gulfport, MS; James Porter and wife Juanita of Walton, KY; Dale Rose and wife Lori of Williamstown, KY; and Timothy Rose and wife Shelley of Florence, KY. She was also greatly blessed with sixteen grandchildren, twenty three great grandchildren and 11 great great grandchildren.
Until we meet again …
