Rosemary lived until 2005, so Rose was spared that. Just like Caroline, losing her father, mother and then brother. Awful.

Poor Rosemary was the most tragic Kennedy, IMO. She had the mental age of approximately 10 years old, which the family tried to hide. She was extraordinarily beautiful, but as she aged, she flew into rages and had convulsions. Plus, Joe, Sr. was terrified that she would procreate. When Rosemary was 23, he put Rose on a European cruise and then had Rosemary lobotimized. She was institutionalized for life.
