She attended the local public schools and enjoyed birthday parties, family reunions and celebrations as a young girl growing up. She and her best friend, Ollie Neff visited often. Rosa liked visiting family and friends in Springfield. Months before she had a bout of chronic pain. She married Carl Waldo Curry on November 27, 1907, in Champaign Co, OH. They had one child, an infant son on May 1, 1909, who passed away that same day. Less than a year later, Rosa laid on the couch and died from a heart attack, in Springfield, OH, at the age of 25, and was buried in Nettle Creek Cemetery, Westville, Champaign Co, OH FUNERAL SERVICES--OVER THE REMAINS OF MRS CARL CURREY HELD AT NETTLE CREEK. The funeral of Mrs Carl Currey was held at the Nettle Creek Baptist Church, Wednesday, at ten o'clock. Mrs Currey was apparently in good health and was preparing to retire Sunday evening at ten o'clock when she laid down on the couch for a few moments before retiring and was talking to her husband who was siting by the fire. She said something her husband didn't understand and Mr Currey turning to her saw that death had laid its hand on the idol of his heart. He ran to her an raised her up only to witness the last breath of life. The grief stricken husband at once called a doctor who pronounced death as due to organic heart trouble. Mr. Carl Curry is a brother of Alva Currey of this city and has many friends here who sympathize with him in this sad hour of bereavement. Mrs Currey, nee Rosa Ward, was a daughter of Mr and Mrs CV Ward, of Westville, and lived at that place until she was united in marriage to Carl W Currey, Nov 25, 1907, at which time she moved with her husband to Springfield. Their short married life was complete bliss and happiness. She leaves a grief stricken husband, mother, father and four brothers, besides a host of friends and relatives to mourn her loss. She was at the time of her death 25 years, two months and nine days of age, just in the bloom of life. She had a beautiful and noble character and was loved by all who knew her. Many were the beautiful floral offerings which bespoke of the high esteem in which she was held by her many friends. Oh! Dear one, we miss thy sunny smile, They kind and loving face. We miss in every trial, thy kind and loving grace. Our home is dark without thee, We find no pleasures there. Our only consolation is that w may meet thee. In the land that is so fair. God needed one to lead the way, into that fairer Land. For that all glorious day, so he clasp our darling's hand.
