Rosella Blanche Schultz
Rosella B. Ober Schultz, 91, of Polson, passed away on Friday, April 4, 2014 at St Luke Extended Care of natural causes.
Rose was born March 16, 1923 in Des Moines, Iowa to John Ober and Bertha McIntosh Ober. Rose's adventures started at the age of 4 with a car ride from Iowa to Montana in a Maxwell with her mom, dad, and 4 siblings. The family settled in the Dayton area where two more siblings were born.
On November 15th of 1941 Rose married the love of her life, Arland Schultz. Together they were an ambitious pair and left to work in Seattle during the war. Rose worked for Boeing during their time there, while Arlie worked in the shipyards. After 4 years they returned to Dayton and began their family. All 5 of their children were raised in the Dayton area.
Rose was an active member of the Presbyterian Church and community of Dayton where she and Arlie lived for many years. In 1989 they moved to Polson where Rose volunteered at the Country Store for several years.
Rose was a resilient lady that was very loved by her family. She was a wonderful mother and grandmother, who believed and worked for the Lord and did her best to instill that faith in her family.
Preceding her in death were her parents, husband Arlie, sisters Stella and Esther, and brother Bobby.
