Rosella J. (Rossi) Przywara, age 83, a lifelong resident of Old Forge, passed away Sunday morning at home. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 42 years, Michael W. Przywara, on April 8, 2004.
Born on June 17, 1938, and raised in Old Forge, Rosella was the daughter of the late Sandy and Elizabeth (Marino) Rossi. A 1956 graduate of Old Forge High School, she had worked for Brooks Manufacturing in Old Forge and Bolus Freight Systems in Scranton, prior to her retirement.
Rosella’s zest for life and infectious smile will never be forgotten. She loved her casino trips, enjoyed every moment spent out to dinner with her many friends and she could often be found outside in her garden. Above all else, she adored her family – especially her grandchildren whom where her pride and joy, enjoying their many accomplishments throughout their lives.
To simply know Rosella was to love her. She lived her life to the fullest with no regrets.
She is survived by her adoring family, her daughter and best friend Lisa Domozych and husband Thomas of Old Forge; her grandchildren, Annelise and Marielle Przywara and Thomas Michael Domozych; her sister, Jean Cognetti of Exton; her nephews, Leo and Tom Cognetti; and her daughter-in-law, Lynanne Przywara of Pottsville.
Also preceding Rosella in death was her son, Dr. Michael J. Przywara, on August 31, 2011.
A blessing service is scheduled for Thursday at 12:00 PM at the Thomas P. Kearney Funeral Home, Inc., 517 North Main Street, Old Forge. Burial will follow at the Old Forge Cemetery, Old Forge.
Family and friends may pay their respects on Thursday from 10:00 AM until services at the funeral home.
