Rose-Marie Coppola passed away peacefully on Saturday after a long brave battle with Devic's Disease (neuromyelitis optica) and other complications. She was the strongest, kindest, and most inspirational woman you would ever know. As her mother would say, “Rose-Mary was an Angel on earth,” compassionate yet professional, sweet, but firm, and determined to achieve her goals in life - despite her physical disabilities. She was a true role model for us all.

It would be impossible to list all of her accomplishments here, from her early teenage musical success (performing at Carnegie Hall and with Lawrence Welk) to her thriving musical services business “Strolling Strings Associates,” (performing for presidents, world dignitaries, and countless celebrities). She could do anything she set her mind to - and did it with grace, passion, & perfection. She was also the best mother her sons could ask for, always there to listen when times were bad, never judging, and always loving.

The family will receive friends from 10 to 11 a.m. on Thursday, December 10, 2020 at the Stauffer Funeral Home, 1621 Opossumtown Pike, Frederick.
