Obituary for Rose L. Bordo (Manna)
Rose L. Bordo, 92, of Kenosha, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, March 12, 2019, at Brookside Care Center surrounded by her loving family.

She enjoyed playing bingo and going to the casino and playing slot machines. She was an avid Green Bay Packer and Chicago Cubs Fan. Rose loved spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren.
