Rose Pirro Obituary

Rose Mari Pirro of Sunset Bluff, Ellisburg, NY passed away peacefully in the loving presence of her Family and with the heartfelt care of Hospice of Jefferson County!


Rose was born on September 14, 1919, in Solvay, NY.


It was there where she began the rich and long Life with which God had blessed her!


As a graduate of Solvay High school, Rose stepped into the world to make it her own.


Her 102 + years of Life paints her as athlete, beauty queen, socialite, businesswoman, entrepreneur, and Influencer.


In wartime she actually was a "Rosey the riveter". In peacetime she embodied the notion of "a woman's prerogative…! ....and Rose was forever "Dancing with the Stars”!


The best of God's Blessings came to her as Family. Her very dignified Father, Thomas Pirro and Beautiful Mother, Marion Reale gave Rose her sisters Lucy, Carmel, and Mary along with brothers, Rocco, Carmen, Johnny, and Junior! And oh, how all those brothers and sisters added to The Pirro Clan giving Rose so many nieces and nephews and God-kids GALORE!


And when a very Lucky Alton Oakes Shevalier caught the fancy of a Rambl'n Rose the Blessing and Grace of Motherhood was another of God's great gifts.


And so, Rose is now survived by her loving children Andrea Marino and Mark Shevalier along with all the wonderful grand kids, great grand kids, and great great grand kid.....Galore!


There will be a calling hour at Queen of Heaven Church in Henderson, NY on Friday, May 13 at 10AM followed by a Funeral Mass at 11Am.


Contributions will be appreciated to Hospice of Jefferson County, 1398 Gotham Street, Watertown, NY 13601.

I found out today that Rose passed away. I am so sorry for you loss. I will miss going to visit her and bringing biscottis when I go up to camp. I will keep you in my prayers. I am glad that Rose is at peace.

An inspiration to all who knew her. A fighting spirit and zest for life. Always thinking of others by welcoming them to her Summer Masses & christenings at her beach front home. Or offering prayers for others at her Thursday Rosary group. Inviting her closest friends to enjoy Polenta dinners at the Tyro Club in Solvay or watch her beloved Orangemen at the Carrier Dome. Everyone knew her as S.U.’s #1 fan. Rose knew how to embrace life to its fullest. We will miss her.
God Bless you RoseRest in peace. “See you at the game!”

Dear Mark and Maryellen and family, I had the privilege of meeting Rose when I became part of her Rosary group back in the mid 90's. She loved to talk about Solvay, for I too, was born and raised in Solvay. She was a wonderful woman who will be missed. May she rest in eternal happiness.

Mark/MaryEllen & family members - Picture a brilliant blue sky and rolling white clouds above a calm Ontario Lake beautiful summer day. Add the theme song of "The Godfather" playing and add Rose with her handsome son, Mark dancing in his backyard and Mark's wife MaryEllen smiling as she also takes in this magical moment. Everything was perfect...just as in movies. AND Rose should have a movie made of her life; one of many colorful women heroes we had the honor of knowing. Condolences to you and your family.... With all the best memories you can have, Rich & Mo Romano

Rest In Peace Rose. You were such a bright light! I always enjoyed listening to your stories. You saw and knew so much, you were a wealth of information. I was blessed to enjoy your company on so many occasions throughout the years. Always thought I’d get to say good bye. Until we meet again. God bless you.
