Rose Lippincott, 79, of Phillipsburg, died Saturday, February 5, 2005 in Warren Hospital.

Born August, 30, 1925 in Easton, she was a daughter of the late Joseph and Mary Sanguinito Yacone.

She was a member of Ss. Philip and James Catholic Church, Phillipsburg.

Rose’s main focus and love in her life has been her granddaughter, Olivia, even thought Olivia always beat her at playing cards! She used to love watching her son, Chuck perform in his rock band, Magnum and had traveled to Disney World with her daughter Denise twenty-six times. Go Eagles!

She is survived by a son, Charles I. "Chuck" Lippincott, III and his wife Catherine of Finesville, N.J.; a daughter, Denise Hoffner and her husband Terry of Phillipsburg; two sisters, Stella Palumbo of Little Silver, N.J. and Grace DeMarco of Palmer Twp., and a granddaughter, Olivia Lippincott. Three sisters, Sister Joann Yacone, Theresa Johnson and Mary Ramono died earlier.

There will be no visitation nor services. The Noto-Wynkoop Funeral Home, 289 South Main St., Phillipsburg is in charge of the arrangements. An online obituary can be found at www.noto-wynkoop.com.

Those planning an expression of sympathy are asked to consider donations to a college scholarship fund benefiting Rose’s granddaughter, Olivia, made payable to Charles I. Lippincott, III, 148 Rt. 627, Phillipsburg, N.J. 08865.
