Rosemary Ann Allen

September 23, 1946, Sunday, May 21, 2023

Rosemary Ann Allen, age 76, of Kirklin, Indiana, passed away on Sunday morning, May 21, 2023, at Witham Hospital in Lebanon, Indiana. Born September 23, 1946, in Frankfort, Indiana, she was the daughter of the late Charles Henry and Dorotha Pauline (Ham) Wilcurt.

A 1965 graduate of Clinton Central High School, Rosemary worked on the wiring harness assembly line for Kauffman Manufacturing in Lebanon, Indiana, until her retirement.

She was also an active member of the Kirklin American Legion Post 310 Auxiliary. Rosemary enjoyed working puzzles, and never met an animal she didn’t want to bring home. She also liked to travel, especially down to Alabama to visit her daughter… or at least that was her story. Rosemary was a huge football fan, and the University of Alabama Crimson Tide was her favorite college team. Roll Tide! She never missed an opportunity to visit Alabama, under any pretext. She was also an Indianapolis Colts fan and tried to divide her loyalties equally—but if Alabama was playing, the Colts were on their own. Her faith was her compass in life, and she always made sure that her family was the top priority.

Rosemary is survived by her daughter, Tonya Sue Earl (William “Curt”) of Frankfort; 2 grandchildren, Mitchell Andrew Stillwell (Lindsay) of Frankfort, and Morgan Leigh Stillwell of Anderson; sister, Edith Clemons of Kokomo; and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, Charles Henry and Dorotha Pauline (Ham) Wilcurt; brother, Charles H. Wilcurt, Jr.; and sister, Carole Yeadon. A celebration of Rosemary’s life will take place at 4:00 PM on Saturday, June 10, 2023, at Kercheval Funeral Home, 306 E. 10th Street, Sheridan, Indiana, with visitation from 2:00 PM until the time of service.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be presented to St Jude Children’s Research Hospital, or to the charity of your choice. Roll Tide!
