Rose Fogarty

(From Kutis Funeral Home)

On Monday, January 30, 2023, our dear Rosalie (Rose) Fogarty passed on to the hands of God. Rose was the beloved mother of Lexei Mann Martin and Luke Mann, daughter of Ron Fogarty Sr. and Helen Fogarty, and sister of Ron Fogarty Jr., Linda Golobic, Kim Williams, Sandy Drysdale, and Mary Julius. She was a dear aunt, cousin and niece, and a friend to many.

Rose had a smile that shone for miles, and an unforgettable personality that brightened every room she stepped into. She touched so many lives in her time here on this earth. She became friends with as many people she could, always looking for the next person to share her laugh with. She loved music, and was an avid concertgoer. 

Rose was a passionate, career-driven woman and moved mountains while working at Anheuser-Busch and Cardinal Glennon Children’s Foundation. She let the Lord work through her in charitable services, giving her time and heart to those in need. (Editor's note: She organized the St. Lou Crew for Joplin, which came to the city several times in 2011 to help with tornado recovery.) She will be forever missed by her friends and family, but we know her spirit lives on in those who she has impacted in her lifetime.
