Rosealee Stuart, 90, passed away peacefully on October 22, 2006 at the Provo, Utah home of her youngest sister, La Ree Howland. Rosealee was born on July 9, 1916 in Wellsville, Utah to John H. and Janetta McBride Stuart.

She moved with her family in 1918 to live in Drummond, Montana, where they were active in the small Allendale LDS Branch. After graduating from Drummond High School, Rosealee completed the Budge Hospital nurses training program in Logan, Utah and later took her nurse anesthetist training at the Ravenswood Hospital in Chicago, Illinois. During World War II she served with the Army Nursing Corps.

Rosealee enjoyed a long and productive career as a nurse anesthetist in hospitals in San Francisco and Oakland, California. She loved to read and enjoyed listening to classical music. Rosealee had season tickets for the San Francisco Opera for over 50 years and also had season tickets to watch the Oakland Athletics baseball team for many years. She enjoyed making annual trips to the Oregon Shakespearean Festival in Ashland, Oregon.

In 2001 she moved from Oakland, California to Provo, Utah so that her sisters Dorothy Hall and La Ree Howland could care for her in their homes.

Rosealee is survived by three sisters: Faye Howell (Wade) of Hyde Park, Utah, Dorothy Hall (R. Stanley) of Provo, Utah, and Cynthia La Ree Howland (Gene) of Provo, Utah and by numerous nieces and nephews.

Preceding her in death were her parents and the following brothers and sisters: Alvin Stuart (Marie), Ruby Bradshaw (Seth), Phyllis Wight (Ernest), John M. (“Jack”) Stuart, and Nettie Kidman (Ken).
