Rosie was born in Milwaukee on November 28, 1923 to Arthur F. Roesch and Elion R. (McCullum) Roesch. Rosie’s family moved to Chicago when she was a young child, where she attended school and spent most of her childhood, with the exception of some years during the depression when she and her family lived in Westboro. She worked as a buyer for Charles A. Steven’s department store in Chicago, IL for several years before marrying Lee Rindt in 1962 and moving back to Westboro. Rosie worked at the Medford Hospital for 22 years as a CNA. She was Treasurer of Westboro for several years. Rosie was a member of St. Theresa’s Catholic Church in Westboro until the church closed. She then became a member of Good Shepherd Catholic Church of Rib Lake, where she was a volunteer for many years. Over the last few years, Rosie enjoyed the companionship of Harry Stroik who she married in 2015.
Rosie was preceded in death by her first husband, Lee Rindt in 1969, by her father, Arthur F. Roesch in 1976, her mother Elion R. Roesch in 1986, her brother Arthur O. Roesch in 1994, and her sister-in-law Lois A. Roesch.
Rosie is survived by her husband, Harry, her nephew Arthur F. (Linda) Roesch and her niece, Barbra (Daniel) Gibson. She is also survived by Rindt sisters-in-laws and many Rindt nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews. Although Lee passed away many years ago, the Rindt family was always part of Rosie’s family. Rosie was well known and loved in Westboro and will be dearly missed.
