Rose Mary Tatro Obituary (2024)

Rose Mary Tatro passed away on April 23, 2024, and is rejoicing in Heaven with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Rose was born on May 31, 1927, to Joseph and Mary Baczanski in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She grew up in Milwaukee with her parents and 8 siblings. In 1944 she met and married Richard Tatro who was in the Navy at the time. When he was honorably discharged, they moved to Selah where she resided for 67 years. Her final years were spent at the Ponderosa Assisted Living Community in Yakima. For those remembering Rose, they will always tell you that she loved to crochet making numerous baby blankets over the years. Her great, great granddaughter Macie recently received the last of these blankets. Rose also enjoyed working in her garden and prided herself with a beautiful collection of roses. But Rose's greatest joy was her family, whom she treasured so much. Rose is survived by her children: Alan (Cheryl), Boring, Oregon; Fran Jordan, Florence, Montana; Patrick, Yakima; Lynn (Barbara), Goldendale; Barbara Mullen, Selah. She is also survived by seven grandchildren, 18 great grandchildren, and one great, great grandchild. She was preceded in death by her husband Dick, her son Stanley, her daughter-in-law Harriett, her son-in-law David, her parents and her eight siblings. A Huge thanks goes out to the Hospice providers from MultiCare Memorial and the caregivers at Ponderosa who graciously took care of Rose in her final days. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, May 11, 2024 at 11:00am at Brookside Funeral Home (500 W. Prospect, Moxee, WA 98936), followed by a reception in the garden.
