Traditionally, the Rosary consisted of three mysteries concerning the life of Christ: The Joyful Mysteries, the Sorrowful Mysteries and the Glorious Mysteries. Each Mystery has five meditations assigned to it, during which the person prays an Our Father, 10 Hail Mary's and a Glory Be on the beads - this sequence is known as a "decade of the Rosary". If you pray an entire 15 decade Rosary that means you have pondered all 3 mysteries through the 5 meditations for each mystery which totals 15 decades. Recently, the pope added one more mystery, the Luminous Mysteries with 5 more meditations, so technically this now makes a full Rosary a 20 decade Rosary.
The Rosary devotion dates back to the time of St. Dominic who was given it by the Blessed Virgin Mary as a powerful devotion to her for the asking of powerful graces, especially those of converting heretics.

It is not only appropriate but highly recommended. In fact, after the last rites, there is no devotion more highly recommended. Most Catholics at death, when too weak to pray the Rosary themselves, are usually surrounded by family who pray it together. When visiting the sick and dying it is very common to say a decade of the Rosary with them or for them and to give them a rosary if they do not have one. It is very common to bury a Catholic holding a Rosary; this is not for mere appearances - it is to be hoped the Rosary was actually used in life by the deceased or said for them and it is buried with them as a sign of their devotion and confidence to others in Mary's promise to work for the salvation of those devoted to her patronage.
