*Obituary
Washington County Enterprise-Leader
Wednesday, December 6, 2017
Dr. Jack Lee Rose, 92, of Farmington, Ark., passed away on Friday, Nov. 24, 2017. He was born Jan. 20, 1925, in Nara Visa, N.M.
He served in the U.S. Navy during World War II, then practiced as an optometrist for over 50 years in the Texas communities of Memphis, Shamrock, and Possum Kingdom Lake.
He was a sweet, honorable, and fun-loving man who made friends wherever he happened to be. A notorious jokester, he always enjoyed activity, whether it was handiwork, boating, skiing, fishing, golf, reading, dominoes, spoiling his beloved Poodle or Yorkie, or roughhousing with his great-grandchildren.
He served as a Baptist church deacon for more than 60 years, most recently at Farmington's Main Street Baptist Church. Once asked to name what he was most proud of in his life, he said it was that all of his children and grandchildren loved Jesus.
He was preceded in death by his parents; a stepmother; two brothers; a father-in-law and mother-in-law; a brother-in-law and sister-in-law; a daughter-in-law; and his first grandson, Allan "Trey" Carleton.
He leaves behind his best friend and loving wife of 70 years, Betty Rose; two sons, David Rose and wife Cheryl of Farmington and Bruce Rose and wife Elaine of Arlington, Texas; a daughter, Vicki and husband Allan Carleton of Springfield, Ohio; four grandchildren, Amber (Sean) Squire, Nathan (Ayoola) Carleton, Allison (Kyle) Washler, Amanda (Trevor) Stanley; and seven great-grandchildren, Jacob and Jacqueline Carleton, Brielle, Ellasyn, and Toby Squire, and Tai and Priya Carleton.
Services were held at 10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 30, at Main Street Baptist in Farmington with Betty and Jacks friend, the Reverend Preston Beeks, officiating.
