ROSE V. BRUNDERMAN, 92, of Port Charlotte, Florida died Wednesday, November 16, 2016 at Fawcett Memorial Hospital, Port Charlotte.

Rose was born July 29, 1924 in the Bronx, New York to the late Francesco and Filomena Vicale. She moved to Port Charlotte in 1973 from Glenview, Illinois. She was a young and vibrant 92 who left us unexpectedly. She lived a full and active life until the end.

Rose was a strong believer in Jesus Christ and the family takes comfort that she is now resting in his arms. She enjoyed the company of her husband, Gerald Wilkins, during the last years of her life. They kept each other young and active. Rose was preceded in death by her first husband, Paul H. Brunderman in 1994.
