She attended Brackenridge High School in San Antonio, Texas.[1] Flanagan performed at talent shows around San Antonio, including the Majestic Theatre, under the stage name, Jayne Walton.[1] She began singing at local radio stations in San Antonio, beforing moving on to stations in Oklahoma City, Dallas and Chicago.[1] One of her radio performances was heard by musician Lawrence Welk, who asked Walton to join his band, the Lawrence Welk Orchestra.[1] Welk named Walton as his Champagne Lady in the early 1940s during World War II.[1] Walton, who could sing in Spanish due to her childhood in Coahuila, recorded the song Maria Elena with Welk, which was certified gold.[1] Walton left the Lawrence Welk Orchestra in the mid-1940s to pursue a solo singing career.[1] She enjoyed success in Chicago and New York City.[1] She largely retired from the professional entertainment circuit in 1952, when she married her husband and adopted the name Jayne Walton Rosen.[1] She continued to make guest appearances on Welk's long-running television show, The Lawrence Welk Show.[1]Rosen later worked as a salesperson at the Rhodes department store and Dillard's at the Central Park Mall.[1] She retired circa 1990.[1] Rosen remained in good health throughout most of her life. However, she suffered from failing health during her later years, including heart disease and kidney disease, which required dialysis.[1] She also broke her hip in a fall.[1] Jayne Walton Rosen died in San Antonio on January 10, 2010, at the age of 92.[1] She was survived by her son, Daniel Rosen, a law professor in Tokyo; grandchildren, Daniel Rosen Jr. and Allison Rosen; and former daughter-in-law, Sheri Rosen.
