Lily Ann Osuna

-

GLENDALE 70, died peacefully in her sleep on Saturday, July 28, 2018, after a long illness. She is preceded in death by her parents William and Dorothy Roseberry. Lily is survived by her husband Ramon (Ray) and her brother Michael and Nancy Roseberry, and daughter Leslie and Rueben Barrientos, and her son, Porfirio (Porfy). She also has two step-daughters, Stephanie Osuna Vo and Bethany Osuna. She is survived by four loving grandchild­ren, Dorothy (13), William (10), Patrick (7) and Emma (11).

Lily Ann Roseberry was born on February 13, 1948 in Manchester, New Hampshire into a U.S. Air Force family. While her father was in the Korean War, she and her mother lived in Imperial Beach, CA. After the war her father was stationed at Luke A.F.B. and the family came to Glendale in 1953 and stayed after her father’s retirement.

Lily attended and graduated from “Unit 4” (Melvin Sine) school in 1962 and Glendale High School in 1966. She received her beautician’s license certificat­e from the Phoenix Academy of Beauty Culture and worked many years as a beautician. She also attended and graduated from Glendale Community College with an Associates of Arts degree in Social Work. She also worked in elementary schools and was a social work caseworker.

But since her teenage years her mission in life was to have a family, children, and grandchild­ren. As the matriarch of her family she excelled in providing them unconditio­nal love, care, compassion, generosity, grace and kindness. She treated her many friends with the same love. She leaves us with high standards for how to treat ourselves.

Lily was known for her perpetual smile, friendship, grace and kindness to all she touched. Lily believed in God, the saints and angels. She is not gone. She is God’s angel in charge of love and kindness, watching over us.

Rosary will be held Friday, August 10, 2018 at 5:00pm with a visitation to follow located at Chapel of the Chimes Mortuary. Family invites you to share a memory of Lily at www.chapelofth­echimesmor­tuary.com
