Rosemary was a cherished and loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was predeceased by her loving husband, Robert Carl Forrey, her brother Walter Chatham Jr., and her parents Walter Chatham Sr. and Jane Buckley Chatham. She is survived by her four devoted children, Carole (Chris), Lynne (Eric), John (Debbie), David (Erin), and eleven grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

Rosemary traveled the world with her husband, Bob, and family visiting many places including England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Italy, Spain, China, Turkey, Greece, Mexico, Canada and Hawaii. Rosemary and Bob also enjoyed several sailboat adventures throughout the Caribbean islands. She shared her love of life and music with her grandchildren who affectionately called her "Gigi."  Many happy years were spent at her shore home in Avalon, NJ where four generations of the family gathered together each summer including special July 4th celebrations. She always lit up the room with her warm smile, beautiful singing voice and witty sense of humor.

A strong advocate for education and inspiration for her children and grandchildren, she studied at Academy of Notre Dame de Namur, Fitzgerald Mercy Hospital, Immaculata University and College of New Jersey. Throughout a career in nursing and volunteer activities, she was always helping others.

Rosemary was very involved in her community and active with the Springdale Golf Club, Dogwood Garden Club, Medical Center at Princeton, Princeton Hospital Fete, Nassau Club, Present Day Club, Yacht Club of Stone Harbor, and as a docent at Morven Museum & Garden in Princeton.

Her family will miss her dearly, and fondly remember her stories, laughter and loving presence.
