Obituary
Rose Salucci, 83, passed away peacefully on Monday, November 14th, 2011. Rose was born on February 24th, 1928 in Bethlehem, West Virginia and was one of 10 siblings. On September 25th, 1948, Rose married the love of her life Pete Salucci and decided to move west to California in 1955 where they settled in Westminster for the next 50 years.
Rose and Pete had two daughters, Sarah and Debra, and were surrogate parents to many more that always seemed to be coming in and out of their home on a regular basis. If there was one thing Rose and Pete had it was an open house, open hearts, and a passion for giving. Everyone who came in to their lives was treated like family.
Rose is survived by her sisters, Virginia, Mary, and Rosalie as well as her two daughters, eight grandkids (4 by marriage), and seven great-grandchildren.
Services will be held at 2:00PM on Saturday, November 19th, 2011 at O’Connor’s Mortuary 25301 Alicia Parkway, Laguna Hills, CA 92653.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Rose’s name to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital (www.stjude.org)

Debbie & Sarah and Family,
So sorry to see of your Mom’s passing in the paper. I will always remenber her smile and laugh. She was one great lady and one of the best neighbors I ever had (Gretchen Lane)Joe, Kevin , Brian and I always remember Christmas Eve at your house, it was the greatest, plenty of food Salucci style. Weather family or friend, everyone was welcome.
May God bless you all through this time of sorrow.
Love to you,
Chris Greene, Joe Glosson, Kevon & Brian Greene

Dear Sara and Debbie, words can never express the true feelings of one’s loss. Rose was a very gracious and loving person. Rose did so much for me, Kathy, and Ella. She took me down to get my driver’s license, got me my job at Blinky’s, and so much, much, more.
God bless,
