Precious Mother to Jackie (James), Karen (Dan), Rick, Melanie (Ryan) and Ron (Angie). Much loved Grandmother to Lori, Travis (Sydney), Tarryn; Shannon (Nathan), Sarah (James) and Mike (Katelynn). Great-grandmother to Audrey, Claire, Sophie, Mason, Myles, Max, Hunter, Addi and Meyer.
Predeceased by Robert (Bob) Ellery. Survived by Sister, Sharon (Don) and predeceased by sisters, Muriel and Eleanor. Rose, as she was known to everyone, was born and raised in Brighton to parents Ralph and Viola Cheer.
Always a hard worker and active in Brighton, the community she loved, Rose would follow the 'bloom where you're planted' philosophy and did her very best to make it better for all. She served as Councillor in Municipal Government for 23 years, was a partner in business, worked in insurance and a medical clinic, all while raising her five children. After retiring Rose stayed connected with others as a member of PROBUS. Rose loved her home, the sunshine and being outside, gardening, dancing, sewing, painting, her precious dog Lily, and a glass (or two) of white wine. She was always ready to help out and volunteered for numerous charities, causes and committees. Some of those close to her heart:
Cancer Society, Heart and Stroke, Relay For Life, selling Daffodils in April, Proctor House Tours, Brighton Barn Theatre, Ghost Walks, Brighton History Book, Sand Parents, Recreation Committee, 'New To You', Rebekah's, and Communities in Bloom. Rose was instrumental as one of the first three people involved in creating Applefest, Brighton's annual Fall festival. On the 30th Anniversary she was honoured for her tireless involvement. Later, Rose was thrilled to have a park dedicated to her and her many contributions in the community. It's not lost on anyone who knew Rose: the original reducer, re-user, recycler, gardener and clothes line user; that she would leave this world on Earth Day. With her strong faith, Rose attended St. Paul's Anglican Church, was a member of the ACW, once served as Peoples Warden and she sang in the choir for more than 30 years. Above and beyond all and everything, Rose's family was, without question, number one. She made every holiday and gathering so special and would bake and cook and she loved to have everyone together. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Rose's memory to St. Paul's Anglican Church or Community Care Northumberland and Meals on Wheels.
Please consider planting flowers or a tree to remember Rose. Our Mom, our Nana, our GG, our incomparable Rose, will live eternally in our hearts and our memories.
We love you, Mom." per Obituary of Rose Ellery, (https://www.tributearchive.com/obituaries/31281726/rose-ellery.)3 She was buried on 25 April 2024 at Mount Hope Cemetery, Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; per Obit.3
