Rose Zoldak Obituary
Rose Marie Zoldak, 90, of Willimantic, CT passed away peacefully at Vanderman Place, Willimantic on December 11, 2023. She was born on October 19, 1933 in Willimantic, CT, the daughter of the late Albert and Edna (LaFlamme) Bigelow.
Rose Marie started her career after attending Windham High School, Class of 1951 as a telephone operator at SNET, resigned to raise her family, and then worked and retired as a Telecommunications Operator for the State of Connecticut (Mansfield Training School and UConn).
