Rose (Monarca) Daniels, 57, of Colchester, beloved wife of Howard, passed away Thursday (Feb. 19, 2015) surrounded by her loving family and beloved friend, Donna (Sanzone) Brown, after a long, valiant battle against cancer.
Born Sept. 6, 1957 in Middletown, she was a daughter of the late Salvatore and Josephine (Branciforte) Monarca.
Early on, Rose worked for Pratt & Whitney and while her children were still young, she cared for others operating a day care in her home. She went on to work for the Colchester Board of Education. She was a former member and EMT for 10+ years with the Colchester-Hayward VFD. In her spare time, she was an avid scrapbooker, but her greatest joy was found in her grandchildren.
In addition to her loving husband of 40 years, she leaves two sons and daughters-in-law, Tim and Allison of Colchester and Matt and Ashley of Norwich; five grandchildren, Kayla, Tyler, Addison, Lexie and Noah; two sisters, Phyllis Carta of Florida and Sandra Monarca of Norwich; two brothers, Salvatore “Butch” of Seymour and Carl (her twin) of Berlin; and numerous extended family members and friends. She was predeceased by her eldest brother, Joseph.
