After working at Fendall, Dan & Rosie bought the Wigwam Bar & Grill and ran that for many years until retirement. Rosie was a member of the St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church in, the Grant Iowa Tavern League and the Woman's Auxiliary with the Hazel Green Fire Department. She was an avid fan of the Wisconsin Badgers, Chicago Cubs and always ready to cheer on the Green Bay Packers with her Packers horn in hand. Rosie enjoyed reading, going to her cabin in Bagley, WI, an avid card player, her assortment of "hats", but most off all time spent with her family and friends. She will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved her.
