Obituary
Rosana's Story
On Monday, September 15, 1014, the angel of death eased the pains and sickness of our dearly beloved Ms. Rosana Roper, daughter of the late Nealy Roper, Sr. and Ella Wease Henry Roper. She was born June 1, 1945 in the Toddtown Commuity of Grove Hill; the youngest of 11 siblings.
She accepted Christ at an early age and united with the Pine Chapel #2 Bapt. Church. Later in life, she attended college and obtained her degrees in cosmetology and barbering.
Early in life, she married the late Mr. Lewis E. Chapman, Jr., and to that union eight children were born; five of which, her beloved babies, preceded her in death, Vernon Earl, Carolyn, Marilyn, Richard Lewis, and Vincent Lamar.
Affectionately known as "Rip", Rosana had a supernatural love for nature, flowers, and the fall of the year. She was preceded in death by one sister, Marie Burroughs, and four brothers, R.B., Archie, Matthew, and Nealy, Jr.; and a son-in-law, Bobby O. Daffin.
She leaves to cherish her memories, her three devoted daughters, Julia Daffin of Jackson, AL; Verria (Charles) Beckham of Grove Hill, AL, and Princess (Thomas) Harrell of Waldorf, MD; two so very loved grandchildren, Delishia Daffin and Charles "C.J." Beckham, Jr.; five sisters, Ella Ree Thrash of Cincinnati, OH; Essie Wilson of Chicago, IL; Mary Burroughs of Grove Hill, AL; Virgie (Archie) Stewart of Salitpa Community, and Bettye Chapman of Selma, AL; a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends; special friends and extended family, Earnest (Carah) McCorquodale, Bill and William McCorquodale, Mary Lee Chapman, Clara M. Williams, Jessie Chapman. Gladys Kidd, Olean Martin, Bessie Simmons, and Helen Delois Calhoun.
Viewing Saturday, Sept. 20, 12 noon until the 1pm service at Pine Chapel #2 Baptist Church, Toddtown Community; Rev. Allen Barnes, pastor and eulogist. Following burial in the church cemetery, the family will receive friends in the fellowship hall of the church.
Condolences to the family at www.andrewsfuneralhomejackson.com and on Andrews Funeral Home Facebook page.
