She was known as a very generous woman, often donating food from their restaurant to local clergy, churches, and fundraisers. Rose was an outstanding baker and enjoyed sharing her baked goods with family and friends. In their younger years, Rose and Mario were avid walkers. Rose had a servant heart, and with that came her desire to learn to drive a car at age 44, so she could be available to assist her family and friends with their travels.

(Sarah) Bilotti of Kenosha, WI; siblings, Maria (Pasquale) Imbrogno of Italy, Letizia (Phillip) Rizzitano of Kenosha, WI, Erminia (the late Silverio) Tucci of Italy, and Raffale (Amelia) Gallo of Italy; grandchildren, Dr. Matthew, Mark, Zachary, Katherine, Michael, Lucas, Francesca, and Marissa; and nieces and nephews.
