ROSALEE W. SEABROOK

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and aunt on March 11, 2025 at the age of 84.

Rosalee was predeceased by her mother Wildora Seabrook in 2002. She was the surviving sister to Donald Austman who predeceased her in 1989. She was predeceased by her very best friend of 62 years, Dolores Phillips in 2014. She will be dearly missed by her five sons, Chris (Cynthia), Dana, Randy (Rosa), Greg (Janet), and Kerry, their father Chic Seabrook (Joyce), grandchildren, Alastair (Louryan), Selina, Emily, Jasper, Adam and Sarah and her great-granddaughter Angelika. She will be missed by her most recent partner Russell Flint, his daughter Jennifer (Trevor) son Chris and grandchildren, Matthew, Ethan, Riley and Annalyn. She will also be sadly missed by her nieces, Shannon (Orla), Pamela, Melissa (Cameron), nephew Todd (Laurel) and many, many friends.

Rosalee graduated from Kelvin High School in Winnipeg and soon married Charles Seabrook in 1958. She enjoyed modelling and pursued a job in aesthetics. Over the next 14 years they were blessed with five very active young boys. The family enjoyed weekends and summers at the Sandy Hook cottage for many years. Rosalee was a very caring and compassionate person, loved by all who were fortunate enough to come into her life. She was an avid ringette player, excelled in bowling and loved her competitive curling games. She sewed, loved drawing, painting, plants and gardening among other hobbies/pastimes.

In her later years, she and her partner Russell Flint enjoyed their life in their beautiful home in Charleswood where they welcomed family and friends to come and visit. During this time, she also dedicated many years to growing a successful taxation business.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to the Alzheimer's Society of Manitoba, The Canadian Diabetes Association or the Winnipeg Humane Society.

The sun rising will remind us of the warmth of your love. Flowers blooming will remind us of your love for life. Our trials and tribulations will remind us of how strong willed you were. There is a part of you in each and every person that hears or reads this and we can all be so honoured you were a part of our lives. We will always love you mom. We will carry you with us each day in our hearts. We will mourn our loss but rejoice that you are in a better place sitting with Buddy and other loved ones, awaiting our arrival one day.
