She was raised near her grandparents (Moline) farm on the site of the current Baer farm. Delores attended District 15 country school and helped raise her four brothers and one sister due to her mother's illness. On November 28, 1947, Delores was united in marriage to Arvid Rosing of Barnesville. They purchased a dairy farm near Audubon in November of 1950. Together they worked tirelessly milking cows and raising five children and one nephew. Delores went above and beyond as a home maker, farmer, mother, wife and grandmother. During the summer months she cleaned cottages and after moving from the farm, she provided daycare for four of her grandchildren. She was a wonderful cook and filled her home with baked goodies, canned goods along with jams and jellies. She loved to sew and was a member of St. Peter's Ladies Aid Circle and Piecemakers quilting. Delores also loved to draw, sing, play accordion and piano, acting and attending church. Above all her family was her most precious asset. Delores will be remembered and deeply missed by her five children: Dave (Paulette) Rosing of Audubon, Dixie (Larry) Bushette of Elverta, CA, Bruce (Darla) Rosing of Kenai, AK, LaVaun (Shawn) Lealos of Audubon and Karla (Paul) Hogenson of Audubon.
