Rose met her husband-to-be at the company store where she worked near her home in Sharon, West Virginia. She married Frederick Girdwood Chapman on December 31, 1954. Fred joined the army and was sent to Germany the day after their first child was born. Upon his return, Fred and Rose lived in West Virginia for a while and in 1965 they moved west to New Mexico and Arizona.
They made their final big move to Kansas City where Rose's sister, who married Fred's brother lived.
Rose and Fred purchased an old farmhouse in Kansas City, Missouri, in 1972 where they lived with their five children. Rose was a busy homemaker, wife, and loving mother and grandmother. She was a warm and generous hostess, welcoming many into their home. She gave unselfishly to anyone who needed help and had a heart for the "underdog."
