Mrs. Lee was a proud 26-year breast cancer survivor, a testament to her strength, resilience, and unwavering spirit. She was vivacious, exuberant, and fearless, with a zest for life that was truly unmatched. She was a member of VFW Post 8600 in Gadsden, and VFW Post 2760, where she joyfully hosted karaoke for five years, and also a member of American Legion Post 71 in Attalla. She was the devoted companion of John Williams for 27 years, and a loving sister to Carol (Jackie) Vice. Rose Mary had a deep love for community involvement and enjoyed participating in senior civic groups and activities. She took great pride in her home, especially her gardening and beautiful flowers. Above all, she loved her family fiercely, was an inspiration to many, and will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
