Rosella, at the age of eighty-eight, passed away peacefully in her home on Wednesday, April 11, 2018, due to complications related to age joining her beloved sweetheart and daughter who both passed away earlier this year.

She was born September 21, 1929 in Salt Lake City to Elwood and Elizabeth Winters. She grew up in very pleasant circumstances with her brothers, Dick and John, and sisters, Jane, Nell, and Mary Ann, on "D" Street, which was made famous for soft serve ice cream, Nana rolls, and earn your Halloween candy games.

She graduated from East High School and then the University of Utah with a degree in Elementary Education. She found employment as an assistant to Dr. Henry Eyring, then Dean of the Graduate School at the University of Utah.

On April 30, 1954, she married her sweetheart and eternal companion, Nick Stolk, "that Dutchman from Rotterdam," son of Daniel and Jannigje Stolk. Theirs was a love story that will last into the eternities. Family, friends, church, and travel were their passions. Their posterity continues to grow with three children, sixteen grandchildren, and twenty-three great-grandchildren (with two on the way).

Rosella met each day with a smile on her face and love in her heart no matter what she was going through in life. Her quiet strength and positive attitude touched all she came in contact with. Count your years with smiles, not tears. Count your blessings, not your troubles. Count your age by friends, not years! We love you and we miss you!! Till we meet again!!!

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, April 21, 2018 at 1:00 p.m. in the Olympus Second Ward Chapel, 3070 East Nila Way (4085 South), Holladay. A viewing will be held at the church on Friday, April 20, 2018 from 6:00-8:00 p.m., as well as one hour prior to the services on Saturday.
Interment at Mountain View Memorial Estates.
