About	Melissa Star Wolfe/Rose, 63, passed away on July 8, 2025, in Lexington, Ohio. Born on March 12, 1962, Melissa affectionately known as Missy devoted her life to caring for others. As a loving mother and housewife, she took great pride in maintaining a spotless home and nurturing her family. Her generous spirit and boundless compassion touched everyone she met. Missy never knew a stranger and was always ready to lend a helping hand. She had a deep love for animals and rescued countless pets over the years, offering them the same warmth and care she gave to those around her. Whether enjoying a meal out or cheering on her grandchildren at their games, Missy found joy in life’s simple pleasures and the company of those she loved. She is survived by her daughters Heather (Andy) Donnenwirth and Crystal (Gary) Moyer; sisters Cindy (Tim) Phillips, Lynda (Gary) Ditty, and Christine (Paul) Wareham; twelve grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews who loved her dearly.
