Obituary for Valerie Rosevear
V. Valerie Shore Rosevear, age 86, of Bakersfield, CA, departed this life on December 31, 2020 from complications of the Covid-19 virus. She was the daughter of Marshall Ray Shore and Rena C. Basque.
She was born on September 4, 1934 and spent many years in central Massachusetts as a homemaker and, after her husband Richard’s passing, as a clerical office worker. Later in life she lived in North Carolina and California.
Valerie was a violinist when young and a lifelong pianist. She also enjoyed art, classical music and was an avid reader and bridge player. Her quick wit and friendly personality allowed her to make friends in all the places where she lived. But her true passion was her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She is survived by her children, Richard, Thomas, Todd and Valerie; grandchildren, Megan, Emma, Madison, and Julian; great-grandchildren Luca, Elliott and Forrest, and brother Marshall Shore Jr.
Visitation will be at Greenlawn Funeral Homes, 2739 Panama Ln, Bakersfield, CA from 4:00-8:00p.m. on Monday, January 11th.
