RAUSCH, Dorothy
Her mission on Earth fulfilled – August 28, 2019
Our dearly departed Dorothy Rausch passed
away from us on Wednesday, August 28, 2019 at the age of 85. We miss her loving
presence and her fun, original and sparky personality. Dorothy was a role model
for many of us in the family; independent and self reliant before feminism was
ever a term. She was a loving and supportive person; always there for her
family, like a second mother and a surrogate gramma. She loved and adored
children. Dorothy was a Senior Supervisor at the City of Calgary AID Center
(Advice, Information and Direction) until retirement, and a founding member of Centre Street
Church. She is survived
by her brother Ken (Isabel) Rausch, and predeceased by her sisters Bertha,
Adele and Martha, as well as her brothers Al, Sam and Bill. Heartfelt thanks
from Dorothy’s family goes out to the staff at Cochrane Bethany Care Centre for
the caring and compassionate family environment that eased Dorothy’s final days
(and years).
Memorial Service will be held at Centre Street Church (3900 2 St NE, Calgary, AB, T2E 9C1 – Chapel on the 2nd floor) at 1:00 pm Monday, September 9, 2019. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Centre Street Church: missions, or to Samaritan’s Purse.
Arrangements entrusted to Cochrane Country Funeral Home, Florence (Flo) Simpson, Funeral Director. Ph: 403-932-1039.
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de RAUSCH Dorothy..
