Rosemary Hughes

Rosemary 'Rosie' Jean Hughes (Revel)
Our beautiful beloved Rosie was taken from us suddenly on the
afternoon of February 3
rd, 2010. Born in Juneau, Alaska May 30
th 1959, her life, although cut too short, was full of
love and friendship. Whether it was her childhood in Raymond, WA,
during her school years at Willapa Valley, her 20 plus years of
working at the Boeing Everett plant, or her time with the friends
of Bill W, she had the special ability of forging strong
relationships wherever she went and a spirit that can not be
forgotten.
She married David Mullenix and moved to Arlington, WA in the
early 1980s to raise their two children. In 2006 she married
Michael Hughes in a Elvis themed Las Vegas wedding that her mother
Darlene would have loved.
We will remember her soft touch, the way she loved and cared for
others, the comfort of her embrace and her sense of humor. She had
a love for all animals, music, and all people. She enjoyed singing
loud, whether on the hilltop of her childhood home, or while
driving in her car. She cherished the precious moments with her
grandchildren, enjoyed taking them to new and exciting places and
in return traveling to new places with her husband. Her sweet
smile, laugh that would fill a room and large heart will stay with
us forever.
Rosie is survived by her husband, Michael Hughes of Lynnwood WA,
her son, Shaun Mullenix of Arizona City AZ, her daughter, Tristin
Rieken of Alger WA, her brother, Allen Revel of Bothell WA, her
sister, Charmayne LeClair of Raymond WA, her Grandchildren, Kaleb
and Ayden Mullenix, Chayce and Fletcher Rieken and countless
friends and family members whom she held so dear.
Rosie joins her father, Joe Revel, her mother, Darlene Revel and
her adored dog, D.O.G. We are comforted knowing that wherever she
is, she is preparing a meticulously clean and sweet smelling home
to greet us all when it is our time to join them.
Rosie was there to console us in our times of grief, now it is
time for us to console each other in our time of great loss. A
celebration of Rosie's life will be held Sunday, March 14
th at 3pm at the Camano Senior & Community Center.
606 Arrowhead Road
Camano Island WA 98282.
