Rose Beatrice Turanin, 94, of Canton, Ga., passed away on Thursday, July 9, 2020. She was born on July 15, 1925, in Monongahela, to father Gennaro Falorio and mother Rosa DeFrancesco Falorio, proud immigrants from the Abruzzo region of Italy in the early 1900s. Rose, formerly of Greensburg and a resident of The Lodge at Bridgemill in Canton, was an avid reader and a lifelong fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. She had two careers: professional office manager and loving parent. She was strong in her faith and lived according to her Catholic values. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family. Rose will always be remembered for her loving nature, honesty and compassion. Rose is preceded in death by her husband, John G. Turanin; and three brothers, Domenick and Paul of Monongahela and John of Cleveland, Ohio. She is survived by her daughter, Susan Rose Alexander of Woodstock, Ga.; a son, John J. Turanin and his wife Carol of Danville, Calif.; granddaughter, Elena of Walnut Creek Calif.; as well as extended family members across the U.S. and in Italy. A funeral service to honor the life of Rose Turanin was held Monday, July 13, 2020, at 11 a.m. at WOODSTOCK FUNERAL HOME, where necessary health measures took place. Due to current circumstances, guests were strongly encouraged to view the livestream of the service at Woodstock Funeral Home’s Facebook page, which is still available to view.
