of Sacramento, Calif. peacefully went to her heavenly home at the age of 82 on March 11, 2023, surrounded by loved ones.
She was born on March 30, 1940, to the late Rev. George H. and Della Mae Constant of Winters, Calif. Rosalie cherished her life filled with so much family, so many close friends, and always laughter.
If you asked Rosalie to tell you about her greatest achievement in life, she would proudly and undoubtedly say it was her children. Rosalie was an amazing mother, someone who always volunteered for any activity with her kids as they were growing up. Becoming a grandmother next was just the cherry on top for her. Family meant more to Rosalie than anything else, and this clearly showed as she was always her happiest when she was with them.
Many words could be used to describe Rosalie, and perhaps “fun-loving” should be at the top of the list. She had a variety of hobbies and passions, including sewing, crocheting, bowling, trips to see “Doctor Cache” (Cache Creek Casino), and of course, shopping. She also loved to travel, and was always up for an adventure! Oh, the stories and memories that Rosalie loved to share! Even until her final moments, Rosalie regaled visitors with her lifetime of experiences. Her smile, vivacious spirit, and contagious laughter were stronger than any ailment that had ever slowed her down.
Importantly, Rosalie was always there for others; with love, support, and wisdom for any family member or friend who needed her. She will be greatly missed by all who loved her, and her spirit will forever live on in all of our hearts.
Rosalie was preceded in death by her 11 older siblings, her partner of 18 years James Mulhern, and her stepchild Stephen Mulhern (Joyce). She is survived by her children Cyndy Mulhern (Mike) and Joe Garcia; her stepchildren Wendy Gray (Phil), Nancy Cazares (Robert); 19 grandchildren and their spouses, 16 great-grandchildren, one great-great-granddaughter, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Funeral Services are Friday, March 31, 2023, at 11 a.m. at Pioneer Presbyterian Church, 205 Russell St. in Winters.
Celebration of Life following at Hotel Winters, 12 Abbey St. in Winters.
