Rosalee was born January 3, 1928 in Spencer, West Virginia to the late Roy and Erma (Vineyard) Starcher. On February 2, 1958, she and Jack Colley were married in Crestview, Florida. Jack served in the military and they lived in many cities and foreign countries. After his service, they decided to make Sherman their home. Mrs. Colley retired from American Bank and was an active member of Fairview Baptist Church where she had many friends. She was also a charter member of West Sherman Baptist Church. She was a lifetime member of the Wilson N Jones Auxiliary Volunteers and VFW Ladies Auxiliary.

She is survived by her stepson, Larry Colley and wife Kay, one step-grandson, Cory Colley and wife Crystal, and two much adored great granddaughters. Mrs. Colley is also survived by several nieces and nephews, including her special niece, Bonnie Slack, and her devoted friend Don Ersch who helped her through the hard times. Rose had no children of her own but loved many and was lovingly called Aunt Rose by children and adults.
