Rosina “Ro” Anderson

Rosina “Ro” Anderson, 97, passed away on January 25, 2020. She was born September 16, 1922 in Bury St. Edmunds, England.  A place she dearly loved and missed so much.

On January 27, 1945 she married Charles “Tim” Anderson in Bury St. Edmunds.  Tim was a flight engineer during WWII and was stationed near Ro’s home.  After the war, Ro came to join Tim and started their farm life together on a farm near Beard.  After Tim’s sudden passing in July of 1976, Rosina moved to Terrace Hills Mobile Home Park where she resided until moving to Muncie to be near her daughter, Susan.

Rosina loved her flowers and any stray animal that would walk by her door.  She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother and we will all miss her feisty spirit and English wit.

She is survived by her children, Linda D. Markins of Horseshoe Bay, TX, Susan D. (Tom) Harris of Muncie, Lissa J. (Roy) Adkins of Trafalgar, Vicki L. (Don) Henderson of Forest, grandchildren, Dr. Bryan Smith, Chad Smith, Alicia Kress, Norm Adkins, Nikki Parker, Stephanie Jones, Lindsey Cloar, Courtney Pratt and Keisha Kelley and 10 great grandchildren.  In addition to her husband, she was preceded in death by sons-in-law, Capt.
