  Rosella M. Peters, 83, of Seymour, passed away peacefully on Friday, March 4, 2016, at St. Mary's Hospital, with her family by her side. She was born July 12, 1932, daughter of the late John and Gertrude (Brookman) Philipsen. She was united in marriage to Milton Peters on October 27, 1951, at St. Joseph's Church, Oneida. Milton preceded her in death on February 6, 2009. Rosie and Milton bought a farm, working hard together for many years. Rosie was the boss on the farm, as well as the head laborer and operations manager while Milt worked at the mill. While on the farm Rosie beat polio using the farm chores as her therapy. The couple stayed on the farm until retiring into Seymour. Rosie was a member of St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Seymour. In her younger days, Rosie and Milt enjoyed roller-skating and bowling with friends. They were also active members of the Isaar Trailriders and Dairyland snowmobile clubs. Rosie always had a nice garden and would be busy canning her harvest at the end of the year. She played a lot of card games over the years. Rosie also watched the Packers and the Brewers with enthusiasm. Visiting with her children, grandchildren, and nephews over lunch was one of her favorite things to do.
