Rose Marie Costa was born on October 4 th , 1927, in Washington, DC to Emma and August D. Costa. She moved to Rochester in 1945 and later married Malcolm Campbell on July 3 rd , 1947. They had 5 children, Malcolm, Cynthia, Dale, Peggy, and Gale.
Rose began studying the Bible along with her husband in 1957 and both he and Rose got baptized together that same year. At that point they continued to grow spiritually, educating their children in the way of Jehovah. Rose for a time pioneered, setting a fine example for the children and helping others to dedicate their lives to Jehovah. We will truly miss her kindness.
