Rosa grew up in Raymondville, Texas where she met the love of her life, Eddie Chavarria, at a ticket counter. They ran off to get married on January 10, 1966. They have been happily married for 57 years, lived many places, traveled where they could, and enjoyed their lives together.
Rosa was a homemaker; nothing made her happier than being surrounded by her family. She spent many years raising babies and loving on her grandkids and great-grand-kids!
