Rosalie Isabel Hanson, 70

Rosalie Isabel Hanson passed away on Oct. 26, 2019. She was 70 years old.

She was brought up in Yonkers, New York.

She is survived by her husband of 45 years, Bruce; her son, Ross, and wife Lindsay; son Curtis; her two grandchildren, Logan and Alyssa; her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Marlene and Bill Wertheim; and her two first cousins, Suzanne Shawver and Steve Blumenkrantz.

Rosalie had an advanced degree in English literature from New York University, and had an avocation of designing and producing ceramic jewelry. She had a beautiful soprano voice, participated and led book groups, and was a loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She supplied comforting friendship to so many and will be very missed.

There will be no funeral service, but there are two separate get-togethers to reflect on Rosalie's life. One is for the immediate family and the other for friends. Both will take place at 16 Hudson Road, Lexington, Massachusetts. The family gathering will be on Sunday, Nov. 10, 1 p.m.; and the friends are welcome on Saturday, Nov. 23, 1-4 p.m.

Please hold off if you plan to make any contributions or wish to send flowers because we are planning to make a special recommendation at the gatherings. If you cannot attend and still wish to give something, please contact someone in the family.
