Rosetta Arlene Nofziger-Gorsuch, 84, of Archbold, Ohio passed away Tuesday, August 13, 2019 at Fairlawn Haven Nursing Home in Archbold, after a long battle with Alzheimer’s Disease.

Rose loved singing, quilting and baking in her spare time. She managed the White Lattice Café in Wauseon for 10 years. Rose and Ken then purchased the business, renaming it Rosie’s Family Café. She loved the restaurant business and serving the public. She always had a happy demeaner and greeted her customers with a smile. Rose always wore a red rose in her hair which became her trademark.
