Rosalind V. Watson

Rosalind V. Watson, 64, of Milford, PA passed away peacefully at her home on the evening of Monday December 3, 2018.

Born and raised in Lynn, MA to James and Gladys (Creamer) Donahue on December 29, 1953, she was the youngest of their three daughters. She was a graduate of the University of Massachusetts Amherst with a bachelor’s degree in Communication Disorders. She spent her immediate post college years traveling the country, spending time living in Colorado and Florida before settling down in Pennsylvania to start her family.

Both prior to and following the raising of her four children, she spent her professional career teaching and helping children with disabilities, most recently for The Aaron Center based in Dickson City, PA.

She loved her music, the performing arts and was always reading to challenge herself and learn something new.

Rosalind leaves behind her daughter, Heather Simmons; three sons: Graham, Adam and James Watson; her son-in-law Mike Simmons and grandchildren Emma, Michael and Norah Simmons.

Services and cremation were private at the discretion of the family.
