Rosemarie Greer

ROSEMARIE (KELLY) GREER, Age 83, of Bridgeville, PA, formerly of Noblesville, IN, passed away peacefully into the presence of her Lord on Saturday, May 4, 2024 with her daughter by her side.  She was the beloved mother of Angela (Greer) Gillot (Pittsburgh, PA formerly of Lapel, IN).  She is survived by her sisters Shirley (Kelly) Webb (Pendleton, IN) and Marian (Kelly) DeVoll (Cahone, CO), her grandchildren Nicholas Gillot (and wife Emily) and Emily R. Gillot, her great-grandchildren Lucy and Elijah Gillot, her nieces and nephews Renee Webb, Kurt Webb, Kerry Webb, Kelly (DeVoll) Robson.  Preceding her in death were her parents Oren and Ruth (Noble) Kelly, and nephew Tracy DeVoll.

She was born and raised in central Indiana and grew up on a farm.  She was a band majorette at Noblesville High School (graduated in 1958) and was an active member of “Rural Youth”.  She attended Indiana Business College after graduation and was employed for 39 years at Conrail in Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia in the railcar management department.  She also participated in ABWA while with Conrail in Indianapolis.  As an Indiana resident, she was a member of Prairie Baptist Church (Noblesville, IN) then Edgewood Baptist Church (Anderson, IN).  Once in Pittsburgh, she regularly attended Bible Baptist Church (Carnegie, PA).  She transferred to Philadelphia with Conrail where she later retired and returned to Pittsburgh to be with her daughter and grandchildren.  

She formed a Red Hat Society chapter within her community, Cloverleaf Estates West, and was also the Social Director there for a time.  While living at UPMC Vanadium Woods retirement center, she was a designated greeter for new residents and also lead the community to collect holiday donations for their staff.  

She was known for her colorful attire and jewelry, her famous “Rosie’s Pizza”, taco salad, and mac & cheese recipes, as well as her lovely flower beds of roses, petunias, geraniums, and marigolds. She loved and adored her grandchildren and great grandchildren immensely and could always be seen attending her grandchildren’s sports games and school events.  She was often told she looked like a triplet of her two sisters with whom she had wonderful childhood memories on the family farm.  She will be missed tremendously but her family is grateful that she is now in the presence of God and no longer suffering in her ailing vessel.  

Separate memorial services in Pittsburgh, PA (at Bible Baptist Church, 412 Old Washington Pike, Carnegie, PA  15106) and in Noblesville, IN will be announced at a later date.
