Mary Nell (Maurer) Rose age 80, of Clarksville, peacefully entered Heaven's gates on January 6, 2019, with her adoring family by her side. She was born to the late Arthur and Nellie (Sine) Maurer on April 27, 1938 in Florence, KY. Mary will be lovingly remembered by her devoted daughter, Debra David, son in law, Andy and her precious granddaughter, Cassidy Rose, as well as her beloved sister in law, niece, nephew, cousins and dear friends. She is predeceased by her husband, John (Jack) Rose and her brother James Wondrely. Mary lived her life with grace, gratitude and a strong Christian faith.

REMEMBER ME When flowers bloom early in the spring REMEMBER ME on sunny days In the fun that summer brings REMEMBER ME in the fall As you walk through leaves of gold In the wintertime REMEMBER ME In the stories that are told But most of all REMEMBER Each day right from the start I will be FOREVER near For I live within your HEART
