Farewell Frank. We miss you already, and may God bless you in your new adventures
September 11, 1927 – October 15, 2020
It is with a very mixed combination of sadness, gratitude, peace, and confidence in the continuation of life that I let you know of Frank Rose’s passing from earth to heaven. With his dear wife, Louise, at his side, he took his last breath Thursday 10-15-2020 at about 3:30 pm Mountain Time. Several of his children were also with him: Liz, Owen, and Alan. Although he struggled with increasing weakness
due to a blood condition called pancytopenia, he was able to remain in the comfort of home with a beautiful view of the Catalina mountains he knew and loved.
As he so often said when opening the Word on the rock altar in Sunrise Chapel, “I will lift my eyes to the mountains. From whence comes my help? My help comes from the Lord who made heaven and earth.” (Psalm 121:1,2)
