Rosemary Cutting Lokie passed away on February 14, 2025. She is survived by her loving husband, John Lokie; along with their family: Angela & Terry VanStory, John & Sonya Lokie, and Steven Lokie & Michael Farrow. Rosemary was blessed with four wonderful grandchildren: Sean VanStory, Kaitlyn VanStory, Jensen Lokie, & Malin Lokie.
Rosemary was a highly skilled horticulturist and landscaper, having four of her gardens featured in the Garden Walk. She spent countless hours making a little bit of paradise here on Earth. Rosemary was a devoted wife to John for 49 years, they found their love in Omaha, but loved to travel to Mexico, and all parts of Europe. She loved and cared for her three children, Angela who received Rosemary’s forceful nature, John who received Rosemary’s kindness and welcoming nature, and Steven who received Rosemary’s giving spirit. She fought valiantly against cancer for 13 years and although she lost the final battle, met every challenge with her strong will and determination.
