Rosalee Steele, of Millsboro, DE passed away at her residence on September 5, 2016. She was 96 years old.

She was born on April 8, 1920 to the late Thomas S. and Edith E. Corder Steele in Warrenton, Virgina. She married her husband, Raymond Steele and together they raised five children.

She worked at Townsends, and retired in 1983. She loved to “keep Millsboro’s affairs straight” by her phone network staying in touch with everyone. She was very dedicated to the Millsboro Community and her Church. She had an animated and delightful personality and fun – unless you crossed her, then a force to reckon with. She loved to cook a big chicken dinner every Sunday, 20 lbs. of chicken done in Crisco. She will be greatly missed by her family.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded by her husband, Raymond, in 1991.

She is survived by two children: Stephanie Crosson, of Millsboro; and Patricia Hitchens of Bridgeville. She was preceded by her three sons: Ray Steele, Jr.; Randolph Steele; and Bruce Steele. She is survived by a sister: Ellen Breeding, of Virgina and was preceded by siblings: John Moore; Madaline Schaffer; and Sadie Edwards. In addition she is survived by her grandchildren: Sandra Millman; Ronnie Hitchens; Sharon Wardwell; Matt Hitchens; Jr Steele; Todd Steele; Crystal Ciafardo; and Elizabeth McCabe. There are 16 great-grandchildren, and 5 great-great grandchildren, along with many extended family members and friends, and a special close friends and helpers: Gib Atkins, Terry Hudson and Sandy Baker. The family expresses a “special thanks” to them.

A funeral service has been planned for Friday, September 9, 2016 at 12:00 Noon, at the Journey Wesleyan Church of Millsboro where friends may call one hour prior from 11:00 AM till Noon for viewing and visitation. Pastors Wayne Parsons and Wesley McCallum will officiate. Interment follows in Millsboro Cemetery. Floral tributes are welcomed, or in lieu of flowers, contributions to help offset final expenses.
