Spotlight On...
ROSIE CARNAHAN

My spotlight today is on Miss Rosie Carnahan who was born in Buckner County in Missouri on August 14, 1893 to Mr. and Mrs. Dick Carnahan who came to Scott County some fifty years ago to make their home in the Freedom Community as farmers. Rosie lived here with her parents until she moved to Waldron. She helped out in many homes where she was needed. In asking about Rosie at the Pinewood Nursing Home, where she has been a resident for over a year, I find she is loved and respected by all and helps in many ways to make their lot happier. Rosie keeps busy making what she calls doo-dads) clever gift items which she sells and gives away. She has three brothers: Doc, of Poplar Bluff, Missouri; Anderson and Joe of Waldron and one sister Minnie Jones of Booneville.
