They traveled in a progression of motor homes, wintering in Arizona for several years, and were active in the Family Motor Coach Association, the Elks' Camper Club and the Roamin' Catholics.
Rosann was active in the Catholic churches wherever they lived. She was a member of the Altar Society and choir at St. Matthew Parish of Hillsboro. She loved music. She played the piano and had a beautiful voice. In addition to singing in church choirs, she sang constantly to her children at home. She loved children, especially babies, and was most proud of her family.

She has 14 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents and brothers Lloyd, Howard, Bruce, Francis and William.
