Our family is heartbroken to announce the passing of our beloved mother, Rose Marie Karns, who passed away peacefully at her home at New Perspective Senior Living on March 6, 2026.

Rose was born in Milwaukee, WI, and was a full-time homemaker. Rose is survived by her son, Jeffrey Karns (Lazarina Karns); her grandsons, Jeramie Karns (Lera Karns), Jonathan Karns (Michelle Karns) and Joseph Karns; and her great-grandchildren, Leanna (Jeramie), Lilie (Jeramie), and Ethan (Jonathan).

Rose loved and cared deeply for her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was especially loving toward her great-grandchildren and was always looking at their pictures on the wall. She was a devoted Catholic, a Brewers fan, and enjoyed watching movies, playing cards (especially solitaire), and playing Candy Crush Saga.

Her funeral service will be held at Hartson Funeral Home in Hales Corners, WI, on March 11, 2026. Visitation will be from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, followed by the funeral service in the Chapel of Hartson Funeral Home.
