Rosie Belle Hatfield

Rosie Belle Hatfield was born on October 24, 1947, in Pineville, Kentucky, the cherished daughter of the late Floyd and Ellen Frances Madon, and the loving stepdaughter of Wesley Madon, all of Pineville, Kentucky.

Rosie was a devoted mother, grandmother, and friend who found joy in reading, coloring, and playing video games, especially Spyro. She loved to play the guitar and sing songs of praise to the Lord and often reminded anyone who picked up her guitar that only gospel music could be played on it.

Rosie is lovingly survived by her children, William (Jamie) Mason of Liberty, Kentucky; Steve (Norma) Mason of Steele, Kentucky; Mary (Timothy) Gilmore of Middlesboro, Kentucky and Melissa Russell of Middlesboro, Kentucky. She is also survived by her sisters, Phyllis Neal and Lois Heath.

Rosie was blessed with cherished grandchildren, Matthew Mason of Liberty, Kentucky; Stacey Mason of Liberty, Kentucky; Andrew (Ashley) White of Knoxville, Tennessee; Dominica (Jake) Miller of Sweetwater, Tennessee; Steve Mason Jr. of New Tazewell, Tennessee; Christopher (Cheyenne) Mason of Pikeville, Kentucky; Zachary Mason of Steele, Kentucky; Zac Hamlett of Romulus, Michigan; Cody Hylton of Rogersville, Tennessee and Kaylee Russell of Tazewell, Tennessee; as well as a host of great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, friends, and family, who will miss her greatly.

Rosie will be remembered for her kind heart, quick wit, gentle spirit, and unwavering strength. Her family will always cherish memories of the simple joys she loved and the warmth she shared with everyone around her.
