She was predeceased by her husband Alexander Stear, five brothers and three sisters. Rose touched many hearts with her generous spirit and giving heart. Moms love for her children will live in our memories as she devoted most of her time to us. Mom loved to cook, bake and sew. Her favourite pastime was playing the horse races with her sisters and brothers and always loved to listen to the race results. Although Mom suffered from arthritis throughout the years, she was always very active, but you could see she was very tired with pain most of the time. She dealt lifes everyday challenges with courage, bravery and a fierce determination to live because all her family was so important to her. Her many qualities, acts of kindness and incredible strength will be remembered by all who loved her. The family wishes to extend a special thank you to her sister Jean Bergenda for the kindness and care she administered to Mom and her sister Margie Feirman for the concern and well being of Mom in her last few years. Also Holy Family Nursing Home, St Pauls Ward for the care and compassion during her stay. Mom You were our angel on earth You will definitely be an angel in heaven A private graveside service will be held on November 19. Please take a moment of silence on this day.
