Even when things seemed at their darkest hour, she would reply “Well, it could be worse.†She had a free spirit and spent her life traversing the US. She had a passion for learning, loved spending time at the coast, and creating - she was an avid embroiderer, gardener, and loved making jewelry. Rose spent much of her free time in the garden with her American Eskimo, Lilly, and attending church groups with her “sisters.†She was influential in the lives of her grandchildren, Ruben, Levyne, and Annabelle and treasured her time with them. Rose is also survived by her parents, her brother Mark Geer, and her three children, Sarah Beth Sauer, Nathan Lee Post, and Kathryn Marie Post.
