Rosemary Terese Bennett

–

Pleasant Hill, California

Rosemary Terese Bennett (nee Eglin), born on October 7, 1942, in Downers
Grove, Illinois, passed away peacefully on May 8, 2026, in Walnut Creek,
California. She was 83 years old.

Rosemary was the beloved daughter of Joseph John and Helen Annette (nee
Rose) Eglin and grew up surrounded by the love of her family. A loving
mother, sister, auntie and friend, Rosemary touched the lives of many with her
warmth and kindness. She is survived by her cherished daughter Erin C.
Bennett; her brother Thomas Eglin and his wife Cathy; her sister-in-law
Francine Eglin; and her niece Rheanna and nephews Jason, Michael, and
Matthew. She was preceded in death by her parents Joseph and Helen Eglin,
her sister Judy Eglin and her brother Joseph "Jay" Eglin.

Rosemary began her professional journey as a registered nurse in Phoenix,
Arizona, dedicating herself to the care and well-being of others. Her career
eventually brought her to the San Francisco Bay Area leading her to a career
in nursing at Pacific Bell, where she continued her work with compassion and
commitment. Rosemary's dedication to nursing reflected her generous spirit
and deep concern for those in need.

Rosemary's life was marked by devotion to those she loved. She was a
steadfast friend whose generosity knew no bounds. Her presence brought
comfort and joy to all who had the privilege of knowing her. Rosemary will be
dearly missed by her family and friends. May her memory bring solace to
those who knew her and inspire acts of kindness in her name.

A Celebration of Life will be scheduled at a later date to honor Rosemary's
memory. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Rosemary's honor to
Cancer Support Community San Francisco Bay Area.
