Rose E. “Rosie” Brady age 89
Of New Bremen, died on Saturday, March 25, 2023 at 2:18 A.M. at the Otterbein Senior Lifestyles of St. Marys. She was born on March 20, 1934 in Sidney, the daughter of the late Francis H. “Frank” and Philomena M. “Minnie” (Rakel) McClain. On April 16, 1955, she married Wayne B. “Dutch” Brady, and together they shared 61 years of marriage before his death on November 5, 2016. Surviving are her children: Tim (Theresa) Brady of Coldwater, Terri (Kurt) Lammers of New Bremen, Ted (Ramona) Brady of New Carlisle, Tammy (Greg) Luthman of Botkins; her twelve grandchildren and nineteen great-grandchildren; a brother in-law Louis Moniaci, and a sister in-law Blanche McClain both of Sidney.

Rosie was a graduate of Holy Angels High School in Sidney and went on to further her education attending Miami Jacobs and Northwestern Business Colleges. For many years, she had worked in data entry at Brookside Laboratories. She had been a member of the Church of the Holy Redeemer in New Bremen where she was a Eucharistic Minster – distributing communion to those who were in the hospital. She was always very active in her children and grandchildren’s lives, attending as many sporting events and school functions as she could. She had also been a Boy Scout and Girl Scout troop leader and a president of the music boosters. Rosie loved to sew, make crafts, play cards, and she also loved to bake cookies. She adored her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and enjoyed spending time with each of them, as well as making Halloween costumes for them over the years.

    My deepest sympathy to you. I missed seeing your Mother doing odd jobs outside after she moved from Main St. If I was walking, we would spend a few minutes talking. Memories are precious.

    I loved Aunt Rosie and Uncle Wayne. When they were first married, my brother and I spent many hours at their apartment. We always felt welcome and special to them. In later years when I visited, Aunt Rosie beamed as she shared about her beloved children and grandchildren. I’m so grateful I got to see her after she moved to Otterbein and that she still remembered me. I’m grateful she didn’t linger long as this disease robbed her of her memories. I hope her passing was a peaceful one. These two will always hold a special place in my heart and I envision them together again and held in Divine Love. My sympathy to her children and grandchildren for this great loss.
