MRS. MOSSMAYSVILLE | Sandra D.
Pollitte Columbia Moss, 75, an art teacher and resident of old Washington, died Monday, April 30, 2012, at Meadowview Regional Medical Center after a short illness.
Sandra was born in Har-lan, on July 12, 1936, the daughter and only child of the late James J. and Jen-nie Jo Hughes Pollitte. She was the granddaughter of the late Edd D. and Mabel Anno Pollitte of Mason County, and late Ben and Gladys Rodman Hughes of Franklin County.
Sandra was proud of her family heritage, which reached back to Kentucky’s earliest settlers through several branches. She was an eighth-generation Ma-son Countian. Mrs. Moss graduated from Henry Clay High School and attended University of Kentucky. She was an art teacher at St. Patrick School. For many years she worked as a draftsman for local civil engineering firms. She also did independent art work, including pen-and-ink drawings of many local schools, and local designs and logos, includ-ing that used by the City of Maysville. In 2011, she was presented an Outstanding Community Service Award to the City of Maysville by the Rotary Club of Maysville.
Sandra often described herself as “a draftsman, not an artist,” but she had a gift for seeing and appreci-ating art in the natural and material world and a talent for helping a generation of students develop their own artistic gifts.
She was a member of the Church of the Nativity and taught Sunday School for over 30 years and was a former member of its vestry.
Survivors include her husband of 21 years, James C. Moss; a son, James (Me-lissa) Columbia of Mason County; three daughters, Dana Latham (Billy Crop-per) of May’s Lick, Cathy (Chris) Spencer of Frank-fort, and Laura Reed (Rob Knox) of Maysville; a step-son, Michael (Christine) Moss of Janesville, Wis.; grandchildren, Christo-pher Gallagher, Isaac Reed, Jennie Spencer, Morgan Reed, Kyle Moss and Em-ily Moss; and her first husband, Robert (Elnora) Columbia.
She was preceded in death by a son-in-law, Randy Reed.
Services for Sandra Co-lumbia Moss will be con-ducted at 11 a.m., Friday, May 4 at the Church of the Nativity in Maysville with Rev. Michael Henderson officiating.
Burial will follow in the Olivet Church Cem-etery. Pallbearers are Ben Hughes, Rodman Hughes, Ronnie Anderson Jr., Ty Newdigate, Corey Newdi-gate, Craig Chamberlain and Michael Moss.
Visitation is 5-7 p.m., Thursday, May 3, 2012, at the Knox and Brothers Fu-neral Home and one hour prior to the service at the church on Friday.
In lieu of flowers memo-rials are suggested to St. Agnes’ House, 635 Max-welton Court, Lexington, Ky. 40508. Guestbook at knoxbrothersfuneralhome.com.

MELANIE S. WELTEAssociated Press
DES MOINES, Iowa | In the turbulent hours following President John F. Kennedy’s as-sassination, many were uncertain about what to do, but medical ex-aminer Earl Rose knew one thing: The shooting happened in Dallas, and it was his job to do an au-topsy on anyone slain in the city.
Rose stood in a door-way at the hospital where Kennedy’s body was taken on Nov. 22, 1963, in a vain attempt to block Kennedy’s aides as they removed his coffin. The Secret Service and first lady Jacqueline Ken-nedy prevailed, and the president’s body was flown to Bethesda Na-val Hospital, where an autopsy was done by pa-thologists James Humes and Thornton Boswell. Their findings have been used to support an array of conspiracy theories about Kennedy’s death.
Rose, who died Tues-day at age 85, believed many of those theories wouldn’t have gained traction if he had been able to do his job. He told The Associated Press in 2003 that he and his staff should have done the exam.
Medical examiner at JFK assassination dies in Iowa“We had the routine
in place to do it ... it was important for the chain of evidence to remain intact,” Rose said. “That didn’t happen when the body was taken to Bethesda.”
Rose’s widow, Marilyn Rose, said her husband wasn’t angry about what happened at Parkland Me-morial Hospital but did his best to follow the law.
“At that point, there was no federal law on the as-sassinations of presidents,” she said. “If the autopsy was done in Texas, it would have followed the law.”
The Warren Commission concluded in 1964 that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in shooting Kennedy. It found Oswald likely fired three shots, one of which struck Texas Gov. John Connally after hitting the president.
Marilyn Rose said her husband agreed with that assessment and began speaking publicly about the assassination after the release of Oliver Stone’s 1991 film “JFK,” which promoted the view that the president’s death was the result of an elaborate con-spiracy.
“As far as I know, he definitely felt it was a lone gunman and that the shots came from behind and that there was no second gun-man on the grassy knoll. He felt the trajectory of
the bullet was a described — that it hit Kennedy and then hit Connally,” she said.
Rose conducted Os-wald’s autopsy, as well as those for Jack Ruby, the Dallas nightclub owner who killed Oswald two days after Kennedy was shot, and J.D Tippit, a police officer believed to have been killed by Oswald shortly after the assassina-tion.
A native of South Dako-ta, Rose earned his medical degree from the University of Nebraska. He moved his wife and six children from Dallas in 1968 to take a position as a forensic pathologist and professor at the University of Iowa Medical School.
He died at an Iowa City retirement community. His wife said he was di-agnosed with Parkinson’s disease and then developed dementia.
Along with his wife, he is survived by five daughters and 12 grandchildren. His son died in 2005.
Marilyn Rose said a me-morial will be held June 11 in Iowa City.
As far as I know, he defi nitely felt it was a lone gunman and that the shots came from behind and that there was no second gunman on the grassy knoll. He felt the trajectory of the bullet was a described — that it hit Kennedy and then hit Connally.”MARILYN ROSE, WIDOW
