Born in New Jersey, the daughter of the late Elsie Kiefer and the late John Kennedy, Rosemarie lived and attended school in Oakhurst, NJ. She was a beloved and loyal friend to many. She worked all of her life in one way or another and was a good servant to God, her church, and those less fortunate than herself. She loved her family, traditions, and pets. Rosemarie spent the last 8 years of her life in Alabama where she created new and deep connections. She lived a full life and will be missed dearly.
