Rose Anne was born on January 22, 1934 in Macon, Missouri, to Marvin and Mae (Worth) Kelley.  She graduated from Macon High School, after which she moved to Washington, D.C. with a friend to work as a typist for the FBI.  She subsequently moved to Topeka and then to Kansas City where she went to work for Southwestern Bell.  Once married, Rose Anne moved to Columbia, MO where she worked and put her husband through school.  Her daughters were born in Cedar Rapids, IA and she lovingly made homes for them in Oklahoma City, OK, Clearwater, FL, Framingham, MA, Bedford, MA, Colorado Springs, CO, and finally Kansas City, MO.  As a single mother in her 40s, Rose Anne obtained her associate degree, putting herself through school while raising her two daughters.
