Rosie was the daughter of Florn and Stella Burshik. She was born in
Hennessey Oklahoma on April 21, 1931. She attended school in Crescent, OK.
She lived and worked in Perry OK most of her life as a dishwasher, waitress,
taxi driver, and for 19 years as a cook at Sooners Corner
Restaurant.
Rosie had a special heart for the “underdog” and less-privileged
individuals. She was a tender soul who didn’t want to hurt feelings and
wouldn’t harm a fly. She had a special love for animals of all kinds. Her
favorite past-times were watching Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune and she also
enjoyed watching her favorite football teams. She had a special love and
bond with her son-in-law, Joe who took her to her hair appointments every
Wednesday morning for five years up to her passing. After retiring for the
night, Rosie could often be heard talking to her friend Jesus and asking Him
to watch over her and her family through the night. Rosie was baptized in
the Methodist Church as a young teenager.
She is preceded in death by her husband, William (Bud) Perkins Jr.,
mother Stella Burshik, father Florn Burshik, two brothers Charlie Burshik
and Jim (Tex) Burshik, two sisters, Christine Shields and Mary Cooper, and a
son – Jimmie L. Adams.
She is survived by her son Robert Hedrick and his wife Kathleen of Perry
OK, daughter; Lavonna Luna and her husband Jose (Joe) of Midland TX, with
whom Rosie lived for six years. Other survivors include numerous
grandchildren and great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews; a special
daughter-in-law Linda Hempfling of Enid, and good friend Barbara Schweer.
