She was born in Hartford township, the daughter of Robert Preston and Lydia Conklin Rose on Dec. 16. 1877. She was united in marriage to Charles H. Zimmerman on Nov. 26, 1896, who survives her.
Following their marriage, they lived on a farm in Hamilton township until 1924 when they moved to St. Joseph. In 1928 they came to Dowagiac which has been their home ever since.
Besides her husband she leaves a daughter, Mrs. Beldon Say and a granddaughter, Barbara Say of Dowagiac. She also leaves a brother, Seymour Rose of Hamilton and two half-brothers, Lyle Rose of Ohio; Glen Rose of Pontiac; another, half-brother, Don Rose, dying a year ago.

The flowers were many and beautiful. Old friends of Corwin and Lawrence gave a piece on a standard and several from Corwin attended the service, and Mr. Flagg's sermon was sincere and comforting.
