Rose Yukob

Rose Yukob, age 81 years, died Thursday, March 7, 2019 at her home in Raritan Township NJ, where she lived since 2001.

Born October 2, 1937, Rose was the daughter of the late Francis and Rose (Puntasecca) Adelgais. She was raised in the Saddle Brook area and raised her family in Green Brook. She moved to Middlesex Borough from 1983 until moving to Raritan Township.

After receiving her Bachelor of Arts from Seton Hall University, Rose began working as a 3rd grade and Latin teacher, and eventually worked for AT&T-Bell Labs in Public Relations for more than twenty years.

Rose was a volunteer at Hope House and Home Bound in Flemington, loved to exercise, and practice Tai Chi. She enjoyed all kinds of music, especially from Neil Diamond and Leonard Cohen. Her real passion was her seven grandchildren – visiting, cooking, and having many conversations were the highlights of her days.
