Rose Bockman Obituary

Bockman
Rose Anne Bockman

Rose Anne Bockman, age 80, passed away November 23, 2017. She was married for 37 years to William E. Bockman, who preceded her in death.
She is survived by her three children, Lorraine Bockman (Leonard Johnson), Mark Bockman, and Denise Bockman, as well as four grandchildren, Samuel Johnson, Jayden Johnson, William Bockman, and Daniel Bockman.
Rose Anne was an avid reader, a lover of the arts, passionate about new recipes, and a feline fanatic. Always determined to never stop learning, she was only a few credit hours from achieving a double bachelor's degree from UCCS and she learned to SCUBA dive at the age of 70.
Her smile, hugs, and unending generosity will be greatly missed. The family memorial will be private. Anyone wishing to honor Rose's life is encouraged to donate to Care and Share of Colorado (https://careandshare.org/), Cat Care Society (http://www.catcaresociety.org), or the charity of your choice.

To the Bockman clan, so sorry on Rose Anne's passing, an end to a legacy to smiles and caring but not to the many memories you'll share for very many years. We all will share in those memories and hope to do that in person in the years ahead. Wishing you all the best in a very trying time in your lives. The Loomis families along with Aunt Arlene give their best to you all.
