peacefully passed away on March 31, 2023 from complications following a
stroke. Rosie was born on Nov. 10, 1942, in St. Bonifacius on her family
farm.
Rosie lived life to the fullest and was never one to just sit around.
She enjoyed going to the casino, playing poker with friends, yoga and
her exercise classes. She loved spending time with her grandchildren and
many of the little dogs that kept her company through the years! During
the winter, she resided in Kingman, Arizona where she made many great
friends and neighbors.
Rosie is survived by four children, Michele (Brian) Acquard, Richard
Lopez, Jeffrey (Anne) Swanson and Shanna (Frank) Swanson; Godson Keith
(Casey) Segner; 10 grandchildren; sister Cathy Segner; stepchildren Carl
Swanson Jr., Chris Swanson, and Kelly Nelson; other relatives and many
friends.
She was preceded in death by her husbands Carl H. Swanson (2017) and
Richard H. Lopez (1971); parents Frank and Ruth Segner; stepdaughter
Barbara Hennen; and by seven siblings. Rosie was a great friend to and
loved by many. She will be missed dearly.
Rosie’s family wishes to express appreciation and gratitude to the
nurses at Sunrise Hospital, Las Vegas for the compassionate care they
provided to Rosie as she began her transition to heaven.
