Rosie Belle Fitch Goyne died peacefully at Mount Vernon Hospital on February 10, 2021. She leaves her family and friends with so many happy memories; we are truly blessed to have known her passion for loving and caring for people, her kindness and generosity, her love of nature, and her love of God and family.
Rosie was born May 20, 1930, on a farm in Lavaca County, Texas, right near the Jackson County border. Her father, Will Fitch, said she cost him a bushel of corn and 6 squirrels, because while the doctor was helping her mother, Alzada, give birth to sweet Rosie, the doctor’s son went hunting on their property and also picked a bushel of corn. God gave Rosie three thumbs so that anyone and everyone in her lifetime would recognize her.
