Anna
Rosenbaum
Sep 1, 1928 — Jul 17, 2025
The "One of a Kind" Anna Belle "Ann" Rosenbaum arrived center stage on September 1, 1928, to Oscar Paul and Mary Sue Rogers-Price in Delhi, Oklahoma. She enriched our lives for an astounding 96 years, 10 months, and 16 days. We have no doubt that on July 17, 2025, she made her grand entrance through the Pearly Gates - just as if she owned the place!
The middle sister to the incomparable Bobbye and Paula, Ann grew up and graduated from Delhi High School. On July 5, 1948, she married Hubert Leon Rosenbaum, Jr., and with true grit, she created a world for her four children, Paul, Helen, Gail, and Carol, where love, laughter, and mornings full of song were prevalent.
Blessed with qualities such as determination, independence, and a very strong will, Ann was never afraid to get the job done. She worked as a telephone operator, seamstress, and manager of apartment complexes and convenience stores. While sewing singlets for her grandson (which were often traded with fellow wrestlers due to her "unique" fashion sense) a business was born. She went on to create uniforms for the USA Oklahoma Freestyle & Greco team and the USA Marine Corps team. Ann eventually hung up her hat after devoting 18 years as Director of the Sayre Housing Authority, retiring at the ripe old age of 87!
She loved her family, church, sports, and jewelry, but nothing compared to sitting on her porch swing, sharing a laugh and soaking in the sun while ice cubes tinked in a glass filled with cheap scotch.
Ann is preceded in death by her parents, Oscar and Mary Price; her sisters, Bobbye Todd and Paula Brock; her son, Paul Rosenbaum; her daughter, Carol Turner; and her great-granddaughter, Lily Mead.
She is survived by her daughters, Helen Dodd and Gail Stallings; seven grandchildren - Kayla, Jeffrey, Amanda, Cody, Amber, and Tyler; 16 great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren, with another on the way.
We are overwhelmed with the image of her reuniting with family and friends. The sounds of pure joy will grant us peace. This world will never be the same without you, and for that we say: Take a bow. You deserve it!
