Celeste Rose “Rosalie” Null, February 16, 2024
Beloved wife of the late Victor Null for 52 years. Devoted mother of Donna, Michael (Patricia) and Steven Null. Cherished grandmother of Daniel and Jared (Tiffany) Meehan, Jessica (Patrick) Orbin, Melissa Null, Brian (Jeana) Gibbs, Jennifer (Chris) Gibney and Shawn (Astrid) McNeiley. Loving great grandmother of Soren Signaigo-Orbin, Belle Orbin, Leia Meehan, Gavin, Kalie, Gracie and Izzy Gibbs, Kaitlin (Gabe Clifford) and Christopher Gibney, Stella and Walker McNeiley. Dear great great grandmother to Jordyn Gibney and Jacob Clifford.
Rosalie graduated from Soldan High School and Miss Hickey’s Secretarial School. She was the bookkeeper for the family’s auto parts store, an avid gardener, a passionate reader, a skilled needle pointer, a terrible MahJongg player, an adept baker of cookies (much to the delight of those around her) and always had a dog by her side. Her strong belief in volunteerism led her to working with the AMC Cancer Research Center and Hospital for 40 years including a term as the president of the national auxiliaries. She also worked at the Jewish food pantry as well as helping out at a local nursing home. She spent much of her time as a volunteer at Missouri Baptist Hospital, where in later years she could be found in the gift shop wheeling around with her walker selling candy bars and sodas to health care professionals.
Graveside service Tuesday, February 20, 11:30am at United Hebrew Cemetery, 7855 Canton Avenue.

The family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the wonderful staff at de Greeff Hospice House.
