Rose Marie Ferg's Obituary
Racine – Rose Marie Ferg, 74, passed peacefully on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, with her only son, Brian, at her side. Rose was a dedicated child of the Lord God. She was a faithful servant and tithed to the Lord with the little money she had. She always put others’ needs in front of her own and would frequently go without.
Rose’s life was one of humbleness and servitude. Her friends, family, and those less fortunate were her main purpose. Her gentle soul always brought comfort to those hurting. Rose was also committed to the care of her parents, Elmer and Marie (nee LaFave) Ferg, up until both of their passing.
She loved to read her Bible and daily devotionals every morning before anything else, until she no longer had the ability. Rose also loved to do cross stitching, crafting, and jewelry work. She always felt that giving these items to friends and family were part of her purpose. She never sold her amazing creations to people but instead gave them freely as gifts of love.
Rose will be deeply missed by her loving son, Brain Ferg; nieces: Adriene and Tracy; nephew, Robert Ferg Jr.; and her beloved yorkies: Buddy and Dori.
Rose was preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Marie Ferg; and her brother, Robert Ferg Sr.
A celebration of Rose’s life will be held at Wilson Funeral Home on Thursday, January 30, 2025, from 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM. A luncheon will follow at the funeral home after the celebration of life.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to all the staff from Ascension ER and ICU, along with Compassus Hospice, for their wonderful care for Rose.
