Celebrating the life of
Rosecilla Lillian "Rosey" Walker
Rosecilla Lillian "Rosey" Walker, age 91, went home to be with her Lord & Savior on Monday, July 27, 2026 surrounded by her loving family.
She was born Rosecilla Lillian Gilbert on October 11, 1934 in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania to the late Amos Gilbert & Jessie Chaney Gilbert.
Rosey found joy in life's simple pleasures. She was a devoted member of Bethel Missionary Baptist Church. She was an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan who never missed an opportunity to cheer on her team. She loved settling in to watch classic Western movies, where stories of courage and loyalty always captured her heart. Many afternoons were happily spent at bingo, enjoying the excitement, laughter and friendships that came with every game.
One of Rosey's favorite places was sitting on her front porch. With a warm cup of coffee in hand and her Beaver County Times spread before her. She welcomed each new day with gratitude.Neighbors often saw her sitting outside offering a friendly wave, sharing a smile. She treasured
peaceful morning walks through the neighborhood greeting familiar faces. Those walks reflected the way she lived her life-with purpose, kindness and an appreciation for the simple moments that meant the most.
Though our hearts are broken by her passing, we find comfort in knowing that her legacy lives on through the lives she touched and the love she shared so freely. Her kindness, warmth, and unwavering love for family and friends touched the lives of everyone who knew her. She will be greatly missed.
Rosey is preceded in death by her parents Amos & Jessie Gilbert, husband Donald Walker Sr., sons Derrick "Ricky" Walker Sr. and Marlin "Fatty" Walker Sr. and granddaughter Diedra Walker, sisters Louise Ingram, Fannie Smith, Mary Summers, Jessie Belle Walker, Imo Jean
Taylor and Shirley Jeter, brothers William Gilbert, Perry Gilbert and Charles Gilbert and sister-in -law Sarah Gilbert and grandson Trajon Walker.
She is survived by her loving and devoted sons Donald "Chuckie" Walker Jr and wife Sharon "Chedda" Walker and Terry Walker., grandchildren Donald Walker Ill and wife Amy Walker, Dwan Walker and wife Kelly Walker, Marlin "Keith " Walker Jr. and wife Reanna Walker, Derrick
Walker Jr. and wife Mahala Walker, and Torrence Walker, granddaughters Latiya Walker,Ateria Walker and Tasia Walker, brother in law Donald "BoBo " Taylor Sr. and host of grandchildren great-grand children, great-great grandchildren, nieces, nephews and cousins.
