🌟 Team Member Spotlight: Rose 🌟
For 25 incredible years, Rose has been a joyful, welcoming presence in our Retail Bakery — greeting guests with a smile, whipping up countless delicious memories, and helping make Zehnder’s feel like home. Her dedication, warmth, and genuine care for everyone she meets have made her a true staple of our team.

Originally from Cleveland, Rose moved to Michigan 25 years ago to be with her now-husband — and the two officially tied the knot just a year and a half ago! 💍

✨ Fun Fact: She absolutely loves penguins 🐧 and collects water globes.
☀️ Interests: Traveling all over Michigan, reading, and unwinding with some Xbox gaming (especially Farming Simulator!).
💬 Favorite Thing About Working at Zehnder’s: The wonderful customers who’ve visited her since day one — familiar faces like Mr. Joe and Jennifer — and the coworkers who’ve become like family.

Help us celebrate Rose and the heart, joy, and dedication she’s brought to Zehnder’s for 25 unforgettable years! 💛
