Rosemary Francisco House

In Loving Memory of Rosemary F House

November 15, 1931 - February 4, 2024

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of Rosemary F House on February 4, 2024, at her residence in Anoka, MN.  Rosemary was born on November 15, 1931, and was known for her vibrant spirit, love of travel, and her affinity for all things pink.

Rosemary's life was filled with joy, laughter, and an unwavering devotion to her family. She was predeceased by her beloved husband Donald M. House Sr., her cherished son Donald Jr., her dear son-in-law Gregory Messner, and great grandson Kendall Logan. Her passing leaves a void in the lives of those who held her close to their hearts.

Rosemary's memory will forever be cherished by her brother, Leonard Francisco, and her four remaining children who meant the world to her: Steven (Karen), Richard (Barbara), Diane Messner, and Peggy (Jeff) Dusenka. Her legacy continues through her beloved children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, each a testament to her love and guidance.

Rosemary's grandchildren, Donald III, Adam (Whitney Johnson), Ashley, Tessa (Kyle) Odegaard, Christopher (Emily), Benjamin (Jeeranan), Nicholas (Haley), John (Jennifer), Beth (Daniel) Crandall, Daniel, Lissa Messner, Amber (Ryan) Huffman, Angie (James) Messner, Sarah (Jay) Tschida, Laura (Chris) DeSpain, Drew  (Anna Jayne) Messner, Kelsey Dusenka (Kelsey Elder), and Mikey (Suan) Dusenka, share the cherished memories of their beloved grandmother.

To honor and celebrate Donald and Rosemary's life, family and friends will gather for a funeral service at a later time.

Rosemary's bright spirit, warmth, and unconditional love touched the lives of all who knew her. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered as a compassionate and devoted daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, and friend.

In this time of mourning, we extend our deepest condolences and offer our support to Rosemary's surviving family members and friends. May they find solace in the cherished memories and the knowledge that Rosemary rests peacefully.

Rest in eternal peace, dear Rosemary. Your love and light will forever shine upon us.
