Rose Marie Dulo (nee Chiaccio)

Rose was nothing if not a spitfire. In fact, it’s even how she described herself. Only fitting then, that during WWII she answered the call to become Rosie the Riveter and help Boeing support the war effort. During her many years in Riverside Rose could often be found bowling with the local leagues or serving up delights from her kitchen. A consummate homemaker and dedicated mother, although she worked outside of the home she still found time to make every meal from scratch; nothing was ever from a can. But if she is remembered for her wonderful cooking, she’s more so for her wonderful spirit. When she was with her late sister Emily Camardo, the two did nothing but laugh. When it was time for travel, she loved anywhere she could bask in the sun. Atlantic City and Las Vegas were favorites; both had ample amounts of sunshine and plenty of slot machines.rn Rose Marie is the wife of the late Steven Dulo and mother of Annette Apicella (Joseph) of Mt. Royal and the late Donald Devito. She is the grandmother of Michael Apicella (Roxanne), Anne-Marie Leone and Barbara Zanghi (Ken) and is survived by her 10 great-grandchildren and her sister, Helen Thurman.rn Come celebrate Rose’s 95 feisty years (March 2, 1917-September 30, 2012) Wednesday from 8-10 AM at the Sweeney Funeral Home 337 Bridgeboro St. Riverside.
