Rose Campbell married to Thomas J McNamara.

Aunt Rose and Uncle Tom owned and operated the McNamara Grocery and Meat Market in North St. Louis City, Missouri

Rose and Tom had one child SSGT Thomas D McNamara (Tommy)who was declared MIA/KIA. He was aboard this plane in WWII when it was reported missing on December 1, 1943 while heading back to base from a bombing mission.

Aunt Rose lived to see her only son, her hero brought home. She chose not to bury him in Jefferson Military cemetery, but chose to place him next to his Father with a simple marking of Thomas D McNamara May 1971 age 27.

Now the family is together as Aunt Rose passed November 1979 at the age of 89 with peace of mind knowing her only son was home.

Aunt Rose loved the neighborhood and lived there until she could no longer be by herself. The neighborhood was a block for where her son and husband were buried.

She loved her roses and taking care of them!
