Janie "Grammy" Rosenberger, Smithville, MO— Janie "Grammy" Rosenberger passed away on December 17, 2024, at the age of 4:44 AM, surrounded by her loving family. She was at home with her daughters, Karen "Kat" Taylor and Joanne, by her side as she took her last breath.
Janie, known for her fierce spirit and unwavering strength, had fought through several life challenges, including ovarian and breast cancer, as well as multiple sclerosis and Myasthenia Gravis. Despite enduring these struggles, she remained resilient, never losing her vibrant and feisty personality.
Her family recalls fond memories of the time she spent with her grandchildren, who were all gathered together for the first time in over 15 years on the evening of her passing. It was a time of laughter, tears, and the sharing of stories, as Janie slipped away surrounded by the love of her children and grandchildren.
Janie was a trailblazer in her youth, becoming the first female police officer in Johnson County, KS. Her career later led her to work as an EMT in the Emergency Room at Shawnee Mission Hospital, where she worked tirelessly during the midnight shift to ensure she was there for her children. She also dedicated her time to volunteer work at her grandchildren’s schools and was a constant presence, chauffeuring them to and from soccer practices.
Janie is remembered for her generosity and selflessness, always giving back to her family, community, and parish. Unfortunately, due to her medical conditions, she was unable to accumulate savings or obtain affordable life insurance, leaving her family with the responsibility of covering her final expenses.
A fundraiser has been set up by her daughter, Karen "Kat" Taylor, to assist with funeral costs and other related expenses. So far, the fundraiser has raised $585 out of its goal.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Janie "Grammy" Rosenberger. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family during this difficult time.
