Funeral arrangements have been announced for Rosemary Kowalski, a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, as well as San Antonio industry magnate and longtime community contributor, who passed away on December 10, 2024.
From her modest beginnings on the southside of San Antonio to becoming an integral part of the city’s history and a driver of its future as a hospitality leader, Rosemary is fondly remembered for her remarkable life founded upon her strong spiritual faith and commitment to serving others.
Visitation will be held on Wednesday, Dec. 18, from noon to 6 p.m., at San Fernando Cathedral, 115 Main Plaza, with rosary beginning at 6 p.m.
