Rosalinda "Rosie" Chiprez Perez, 70, of West Burlington, died Friday, August 22, 2025, at the Southeast Iowa Regional Medical Center in West Burlington.
Born January 3, 1955, in Uvalde, TX, she was the daughter of Jesus Arturo and Margarita Alvarez Chiprez.
Rosie was an incredibly patient, thoughtful and kind woman. A long time member of St. John Catholic Church, her faith was very important to her. She had a deep love for her family and loved being a grandmother. Rosie enjoyed shopping, both for herself and finding gifts for her children and grandchildren. She always looked forward to babysitting her grandkids and making sure that everyone in the house was well fed - she was known for her cheesy potatoes. Rosie made sure that she was always in attendance of her grandkids sporting events and activities and was their biggest cheerleader. Her kindness and warm hearted nature will be missed tremendously, but her memory will continue on through all who loved her.
Rosie's family include her husband of 46 years, Socorro; children, Angelica Perez-Hall and Marcos (Annie) Perez; grandchildren, Isaiah Perez-Hall, Julian Perez-Hall, Adrian Perez-Hall, Luna Perez-Hall, Penelope Perez, and Hazel Perez; and brothers, Enrique "Chip" (Junellen) Chiprez and Art (Sue) Chiprez.
She was preceded in death by her daughter, Jennifer Perez; and her parents, Jesus and Margarita.
Cremation has been entrusted to the care of Prugh Crematory.
A celebration of life visitation for Rosie will be held on Sunday, August 31st from 1 PM to 3 PM at Prugh Funeral Service (3940 Division Street, Burlington).
Memorials in Rosie's memory are suggested to the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Please continue to keep Rosie's family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
