Rose Martinez Barajas was welcomed into God’s loving arms on July 27, 2017, at almost 96 years of age, surrounded by family and friends, in her Phoenix, Arizona home.
Rose was born in La Posta, Colorado on October 9, 1921, lived in Durango Colorado many years, and became a resident of Payson, Utah for almost 50 years. She moved to Phoenix in 2013 and lived with, and was cared for, by her precious daughter Sharon Aldecoa until her passing.
The love of her life was her family which, after having 13 children, was very large, diverse, and genuinely filled her with great joy. She especially looked forward to her birthday party every year, which ended up being more of a huge family reunion where she was showered with much love and gave much love in return.
She was a wonderful Mother, Grandma Rose to many, and was appropriately honored in years past by her local Parish, St. Andres Catholic Church in Payson, as Woman of the Year for her dedicated service to the church and her community.
Rose was preceded in death by 2 brothers, 2 sons and 5 grandchildren.
She is survived by 7 sons, 4 daughters, and hundreds of grandchildren, great- grandchildren, great-great- grandchildren, and remarkably, great-great-great-
