Rose P. Brock

Born in Providence, she was a daughter of the late Angelo and Amelia (Mollozzi) DeLibero.

Rose was a telephone operator at Providence City Hall for twenty years, retiring in 1992. Upon her retirement, she was presented a key to the City from then Mayor Vincent A. "Buddy" Cianci, Jr. for her extraordinary work in ushering in the telephone systems at City Hall from plug in cords to computer systems. Previously she worked for New England Telephone Company for ten years.

She leaves a son, William E. Brock, III, 3 daughters, Patricia M. DeLuca and her husband Richard, Maribeth J. Brock, and Susan A. Cardillo, and three grandchildren, Stephanie A. Brock, Christine M. Cardillo, and Thomas P. Cardillo. She was a sister of the late Marie DeLibero Terry and Elvira Vicario.

She was a longtime communicant of Blessed Sacrament Church, Girl Scout leader, and enjoyed traveling, gardening, and cooking, but most of all spending time with her family.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Tuesday morning, at 10:00 am in Blessed Sacrament Church, 179 Academy Avenue, Providence, to which relatives and friends are invited.
