Rosetta is buried in an unmarked grave. Findagrave member JD, who fulfilled my photo request, has marked Rosetta's grave with a bouquet of white roses.

The cemetery's records show Rosetta's last name spelled as McCormick. The name is spelled correctly as McCormack in her official death record and in the obituary.

Obituary From The Puyallup Valley Tribune, January 22, 1937:

McCormack Funeral Held Today at 2

The funeral of Mrs. Rosetta McCormack, 76, who died at her home on 23rd Street N.W., Wednesday, will be held today at 2 o'clock at Hill's Funeral home. Mrs. McCormack was the widow of the late J.W. McCormack, and had lived in Puyallup eight years, coming from Iowa. She had been a member of the Christian Church.

She is survived by a son R.M. McCormack of Puyallup; two sisters, Mrs. Ellen Phillips of California and Mrs. Grace Clawson of Kansas; four brothers, Charles Dimmitt of Montana, Howey, Frank and Oliver Dimmitt of Iowa; four grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

(My Note: Rosetta did not have a brother named Howey. This should no doubt be her brother Harvey Dimmitt.)
