Rosie was born on September 1, 1933 to Albert and Mary (Pfeifer) Anderson in Sauk Centre, Minnesota. Rosie was raised by her foster parents, Gilbert and Elvera Schwinghammer in St. Cloud. She was united in marriage to Clarence P. Jarnot on April 10, 1956 at St. Mary’s Cathedral in St. Cloud.

She was a member of St. Stephen Catholic Church, the Christian Mothers, and former member of the St. Stephen River Runners Snowmobile Club.

Rosie was a loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, who loved spending time with her family and friends. She enjoyed quilting, cooking, going on trips to the casino, watching sports, and going camping at Lake Ossawinnamakee. She will be remembered for her immaculate vegetable gardens and canned goods.
