Rose M. Pape

COLONIE – Rose M. Pape, 76, of Eddy-Ford Nursing Home, Cohoes, died peacefully Friday evening after a long illness. Born on October 23, 1931, she was the daughter of the late Ida Vendura and Philip Carona of Frankfort, NY. After graduating from Frankfort High School in 1949, she married the late Robert J. Pape of Herkimer, NY. Following her marriage, she dedicated her life to her husband and her two children, Robert J. (Marie McCallum) Pape, Jr. and Pamela (Thomas) Lamb.
Rose was an extraordinary hostess and her home was often the gathering place for many everyday feasts and special holidays. In earlier years, she was employed by Syracuse China in Albany and General Electric Company in New Hartford, NY. Rose was a communicant of Our Lady of Mercy Church in Colonie. She was the sister of the late Angelo Carona, Louis (Mary Lou) Carona, Clara (Alex) Tasovac, Jack (Dolores) Carona, and Marian (Dominic) Ganci.
She is survived by four loving grandchildren, Audrey Connor Pape, Elise Talbot Pape, Thomas Edward Lamb II, and Evan Vincent Lamb; nieces, Ellen Tasovac, Maryann (Michael) Wright, Christine (Daniel) Beney, and Mary Noel (Jude) Reardon, Gwen Ganci, Suzanne Carter, Marianne (Earl) Hoosier, and nephews, Richard (Mary) Ganci, Jack (Sandy) Carona, James (Shannon) Carona, Philip Carona, and Joseph (Caroline) Casale. She is also survived by her devoted sister-in- law Frances (Joseph) Casale and dearest friend and angel on earth, Dorothy Rice.
