Carolyn Sue Rose, age 74 of Grove, Oklahoma, passed away on August 26, 2024, at Cox Medical Center South, Springfield, MO.

Sue enjoyed being a Mary Kay Consultant for the past 30 years, and a member of the Ladies Oriental Shrine ABBA Court, Tulsa, OK, where she held the office of Past High Priestess.

Gene and Sue owned a small convenience store thru the 90’s, and then Gene’s Marine and Salvage, the past 22 years. Sue loved living on one of her boats for 5 years, before her health started failing.
