Rose Metrailer Hudgens, 95, of Little Rock, died on April 30, 2022. She was born December 22, 1926, in Little Rock, to the late Anthony and Henrietta Metrailer.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 57 years, Gerald Vaugine Hudgens, Sr. and her ten older siblings. She was the last surviving member of her generation in the Metrailer family.

She was a woman of grace with an infectious smile and a style that always kept up with the times. She had an amazing ability to make everyone in her presence feel special and her encouragement to be happy will live on with her family.
