Rosemary was a highly skilled horticulturist and landscaper, having four of her gardens featured in the Garden Walk. She spent countless hours making a little bit of paradise here on Earth. Rosemary was a devoted wife to John for 49 years, they found their love in Omaha, but loved to travel to Mexico, and all parts of Europe. She loved and cared for her three children, Angela who received Rosemary’s forceful nature, John who received Rosemary’s kindness and welcoming nature, and Steven who received Rosemary’s giving spirit. She fought valiantly against cancer for 13 years and although she lost the final battle, met every challenge with her strong will and determination.

Our deepest condolences to the whole Lokie Family from Stevens friends in Dublin, Ireland. An Irish blessing for the lovely lady we met at Steven and Michaels wedding – “Go raibh síocháin siorraí ort, Agus go bhfeicimid a chéile arís ar neamh“.

So sorry foe your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
My deepest condolences to the Loke family. Rosemary’s wry humor and smile is something I still remember after 20 years. I had a chance to speak to her few years back there was so much warmth. She will be missed.
The news of Rosemary’s passing has left us heartbroken. We send our love and prayers to our friend, John and the entire Lokie family. We have so many joyful memories of times spent with Rosemary and John and are saddened that past memories are what we are left with. God bless you all in the coming days. With love, Marty and Frank
