Rosemary Fuhrman Little, 77, of Hanover, peacefully entered into God’s eternal care on Saturday, May 14, 2016 accompanied in thought by her children and their families.
Born on Friday, April 28, 1939 in Hanover, she was a daughter of the late Arnold J. “Benny” and Irene Musselman Fuhrman. She was also preceded in death by an infant daughter, Wendy Sue Little. In 2004, she retired from Homewood at Plum Creek where she was a cook for 22 years.
Rosemary was an avid reader and enjoyed cooking, especially for those she loved. She was a member of the MRS Club for many years, the Guthrie Memorial Library, the Hanover High School Alumni Association, and was a life member of the YWCA. Rosemary had a circle of lifelong friends whom she enjoyed being with, but her greatest joy was spending time with her children and grandchildren. She will be remembered by those who loved her for her cheerfulness, her compassion, her spirit of giving, her profound patience, and the grace with which she handled life’s ups and downs.
Survivors include her two sons, Rick Little and his wife, Ann, and Ben A. Little all of Hanover; a daughter, Michele R. Einig and her husband, Keith, of Camp Hill; a sister, Sally Zartman and her husband, Gregory; a brother, James Fuhrman and his wife, Fran, all of Hanover; six grandchildren, Tiffany Saleh and her husband, Ihab, of Melbourne, Australia, Scott Little and his wife, Lisa, of York, Tara Smith of Hanover, and Elizabeth, John and Allison Einig, all of Camp Hill; and three great-grandchildren, RubyRose and Memphis Saleh, and Mackenzie Moody, and another great-grandchild expected in September.

Burial will follow in Rest Haven Cemetery. Pallbearers will be Rick, Ben and Scott Little, Keith and John Einig, and Jim Fuhrman. Gregory Zartman will serve as an honorary pallbearer.
