She was born on December 15, 1932, in Mohrland, Utah to Saverio and Josephine (Farlaino) Marrelli. At the time of her passing, Rosie was the last surviving child of Saverio and Josephine. She was the seventh of nine children.

Shortly after high school, Rosie left Carbon County and found work in the aerospace industry and spent the next 40 years with the Boeing Corporation near Seattle, Washington.
